I was bitten by the food photography bug when I had my first digital camera in hand and a bowl of strawberries in front of me. I felt an urge to capture them, and when I looked at the shot and saw the crisp details of the seeds complemented by the red, it was love at first photo. I instantly wanted to get better at taking photos and my mind was flooded with questions like:
- What’s the next step for a beginner like me?
- Where do I turn for easy to understand information?
- How can I make photos that you could practically taste, touch, and smell?
- How do I actually make money from these images?
It took a lot of trial and error to get where I am now.
I’m sharing all I’ve learned so you can gain confidence,
clients, and income with the images you take.
