Hmm, Food Photography as a passion, a career, new blogs!

February 24, 2008 at 11:27 am (Food)

I do not know how and why I was led to a really wonderful blog focusing on food photography this bright Sunday morning but it sparked something in me. A month or two ago a client suggested that I look into food photographyas a possible next step, a career. I thought about it for a minute and did not give it any more thought as I love interior design, etc.Today, however I’m giving it a lot of thought. It all started this morning when my fingers led me to this sweet little blog, it’s called Butter Sugar Flower It’s so refreshing. As I read some of her posts I became nostalgic over the times my mother would back cakes on Sundays or any day that she felt like it and she’d always and still does, let me lick the bowl. Thanks Mom!

Another blog that I discovered today is MattBites  This is a warm-hearted blog. You can feel the love that this wild and crazy guy has for his profession as a Food Photographer. Actually he’s worked in other creative fields, but here he focuses on food, the business of food photography and his life. Very nice indeed.

Now there are other great blogs under the Food category on my blog but this one in particular is quite informative. Here you will learn about lighting, licensing, bokeh (just learned about this seconds ago) gear, composition, etc. I mean, it’s really great advice and insight into the world of food photography and food styling. Great photos as well.
Oh! It’s name is Still Life With Check it out!

If you know of any more websites, blogs that you find interesting that delve into the world of food photography and styling, please let me know, let everybody know. Share the love!
I will take cooking classes in Thailand and I really hope that I’ll take pictures of dishes that will make your mouth water, if I don’t eat them first that is.

Be happy, everyone!

    Hi again,
    thanks for the info on the tiles. Would like to know where in Asia you can buy these, maybe imported? Send me close-up photo if you have.
    Many thanks!
    BTW, it is difficult to get back to you as the link to your profile does not work (no access). I guess, it is not on purpose…

    Ciao
