As you folks know i am doing some food photos at hotel these days. Here is resposible chef Mr William of so many mouth watering dishes i am shooting. Apart from food sometimes he want me to shoot him. These may not be cool as i used h5 in indoor light without flash. But he liked them and one of these will go in advertisments. Btw they loved the photos i am giving them :clap.

    Oh yum! I love these shots Awais, they are all fantastic but especially the 2nd one. The third one is cool too. That dessert looks positively sinful.

    He looks like a very serious man, how is it working with him?

    The first one doesn't do anything for me. I find the extremely bright window light very distracting, taking away from the main subject, the chef. That being said, the next three shots are great!!! #2 is a very dynamic shot, depicting the chef as calm and in control in the midst of a storm. 3 and 4 are very unique shots and showcase the desserts very nicely......Thanks

    These are great, Awais. I particularly like the second one with the motion around the stable chef. Nicely done!

    Awais I love the last three! Very creative and they are great for integrating what he does, how he does it, and who he is (or appears to be).

    I'm still envious and proud that you've managed to have such a great opportunity available to you. Food photography and portraiture! iloveyou.gif
