my pictures

I am not only obsessed with food, but I'm also a big fan of food photography and I do take all of my own pictures...depending on the picture this might be something to take pride in or...maybe not. I've read a couple of books on food photography, but I find the best knowledge I have comes from observing other's pictures and just trying lots of different stuff when I'm shooting. My Canon PowerShot A80 isn't anything fancy and few places in my house have ideal lighting, but I work with what I've got and it usually gets the job done. If I can get one decent picture of my food at the end of the day, I'm happy :)

*The pictures are in alphabetical order, but I update them frequently so scroll down to check for new additions!
