Your way of presenting this tutorial is so clear, precise, detailed that even a novice can say "I want to try it!" My urge to take beautiful photos of my baked products lead me to your channel. Although I use mobile phone only, I hope to see more of your videos.❤️ Thank you very much❤
Excellent tutorial...great content and great presentation...just starting out with this kind of photography, this was very helpful. All the best from Germany, stay safe!
So I just bumped into your channel and I’m wowed! I may take no further photography classes as they haven’t helped much. Can you make a video about camera set ups, iso, shutter speed etcccc please??????🥺🥺🥺 Every video I watch confuses me more and no, the classes haven’t helped.
I search for dark food photography and found this, really helpful..by the way how to shoot a food for example bakery products with the transparent plastic that cover it?how to handle the reflection?i hope you make it happen..thanks alot👍👍
Of course! I mainly use the manfrotto 5001B nano stand. It's a great lightweight + durable option as well as a great space saver as it folds up nicely.
At least you understand light and using sidelight. Jut watch another who blasted a strobe from the front shooting from the front showing no shape to his subject

what type of lens is good for food photography?
Can you tell us about your stands? I need to get one and could use a recommendation.

Very good videos! Definitely too less subscribers
How can I read the histogram
Depends on what camera you're using as they all have different ways of displaying the histogram
what's moody about it?
At least you understand light and using sidelight. Jut watch another who blasted a strobe from the front shooting from the front showing no shape to his subject
Just eat it...
