I took some pics at my in-laws B&B this weekend. They were looking to add some new stuff to their website and asked if I would like to try and take some pics of their food. Me never trying it before just gave it a shot. Let me know what you think!

    I am really glad you all like them! To me they looked really good and I thought they would help out their webpage. Anyone have any idea what I could do to make them better?

    They all look inviting. I would like to have seen the entire plate in some of them--they are cut off at the edges. But the food is prominent and that's the key.

    I think you could enhance these a bit with Levels and maybe some vibrance/saturation adjustments in photoshop. I tried it with the strawberries and cream shot and it looked a bit better.

    That's just a nit 2 cents. As said above, these are very nice for your first food shots and they would probably work great on the web site.

    One question: Do you deliver? rolleyes1.gif

    15524779-Ti.gif we everyones positive thoughts for your nice images.
    They very good photos.

    Only thing I would point at is that, for me, I would watch how much
    OOF foreground used depending on the dish item. Usually my eye
    goes to the front of the plate first and moves up. So with food I want
    to see the area sharp first then perhaps a fade with OOF.
    Mostly you have done just that. :D

    Nice work. No doubt your in-laws will appreciate your efforts. thumb.gif
