Food Glorious Food

I have never done food photography before, but when a new local cafe asked me to photograph some of their food for them, I jumped at the opportunity to add to my experiences.

Normally in food photog, the products are covered in glossy sugary goodness to make them look more appealing on camera, but we didnt have the resources to do this so its all as was.

Hope you enjoy, let me know what you think please! x

Sunset in Bollington

With beautiful views a short (but hard) 20 minute walk away from my parents home I decided to take full advantage of these with a later sunset. At the top of this hill is a building known locally as White Nancy, it used to be a seating area inside but was blocked off years and years ago but can be seen at the top of the hill for miles. It is currently decorated in celebration of the Diamond jubilee.

Hope you enjoy the photographs

I got to the top of the hill at about 9:20 and sat around for 20/25 minutes photographing the sunset

Daisy

As I’m sure everyone in the UK knows it has been boiling hot over the past few days, so in the park yesterday I decided to take some pictures of the surroundings, mainly involving daisies. Hope you enjoy, feedback/comments always welcome

For this photograph I used my macro lens but balanced the camera on my camera bag instead of using a tripod, so I could get really low. I was just messing around but it turned out better than I expected

 

For this photo I just used the macro setting on my camera, held a daisy in one hand and took the picture with the other

Cath Kidston

My sister asked me to photograph an event for her. She is the deputy manager at Cath Kidston King Street, Manchester. And the event was a crochet workshop. I won’t put too many pictures on because they will probably bore you but if you would like to see more just comment 🙂

Here are some of my favourites

ps. The background looks like a real house but it is just their amazing shop

 

 

 

 

Fireworks

 

These were taken last Bonfire night with different shutter speeds to create different effects. Some I wanted to capture a sharp image of the fireworks at their brightest, others I wants to show the fall and the whole effect of the firework.

 

This photo was taken using 3 sparklers and a long shutter speed, around 2 or 3 seconds where I held all 3 sparklers at once and continuously drew hearts with them until the picture had taken

Rose

To be honest I don’t know how I got this effect on the picture.

I took it as soon as I got home from buying my 70s marco lens and in the shop we had been messing around with different ISO settings, f stops and shutter speeds and I cannot remember which ones it was on.

But I like the way it accidentally turned out with the grainy effect complimenting the dark and strong hues making the image look quite old.

Hope you enjoy, feedback always welcome
