Is video the future of food photography?

 

It's all about the light, 'bout the light, 'bout the light.
Still or video, beautiful food photography requires beautiful control of light and focus. However, I think everyone would enjoy seeing the behind the scene videos from a food shoot. Here is Marie Haycox hard at work. Enjoy!

Still Stylin'

More for the same money... That seems to be the mantra these days. Once again I have been the grocery shopper, food stylist (I baked the burger and faked the grill marks with a hot skewer), and photographer. 

The product is cheese, and I think it stands up pretty well. The burger looks yummy and the whole grilling experience seems to be there.

You can't have shot with food stylists for so many years without having learned something. My apologies go out to my food stylists. Let's hope things turn around soon.
