Food Photography

This was my third attempt at shooting food photography, the first two were less than successful. I chose a very difficult subject to begin with, steak on the BBQ. I struggled with lighting for this image and ended up with a mediocre final result. I then chose to shoot a pice of cake, which seemed easier than working with flames, until it melted before my eyes under the studio lights. In the end I changed my idea entirely and shot jello in a glass bowl. I was much more satisfied with the final results where i was able to capture an abstract but detailed shot of green jello.
