About
I had never shot food or still life, beyond uni assignments whilst studying. One day I decided to style and shoot some food, setting up a studio at home. This was my first attempt at shooting food, and funnily enough, a commercial food job came out of it!
Had a look at yours - are you talking about the lobster salad? Good effort, lovely photo! Looked pretty tasty too! Feel free to shoot the recipe through! :)
So jealous you have a 4x5, it's on my list! There is a shot in my portfolio of a lychee martini which was taken my first time using a 4x5. Still learning the ropes, it's such a different way of shooting.
I actually tried that recently myself for the first time with my D70. Really should've used my 4x5 though, but I'm still figuring these things out as I go. Get in close, light it up, widest aperture possible seems to be the rule in food photography. Nice one here.
