    I’ve always gone by feel which wasn’t working as I’m an over thinker and I need everything to have an exact reason. Also it’d take ages because I’d set things up and then something’s off but I can’t pin point what it is...love how you gave concise tips and why they work.

    I love the lighting tips! I always thought light straight on would be the best, but turns out that it'll make the image flat. No wonder!

    I think this is some of the best food photography advice, the real crucial fundamentals. I find other videos get too carried away with all this technical stuff and I'm sitting here with only the camera in my phone, I ain't messing around with depth of field!
