I have an updated video on even higher quality food production techniques if you want to check that out too: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-06ojJSzyEWo.html
I had a question. I have a Canon 5D mark 1 classic and haven't touched my camera in years. Have been feeling the urge of getting back into it - specifically in food but haven't got lighting. My friend wants me to do a shoot indoors at his new restaurant - there is decent light which comes in, but only about 75 - 80% max. If I use a sheet or baking paper and a LED light from my phone, will that act as a decent diffuser?
These little lights are just fantastic, I mean look at how simple that setup is. No cables, setup and strike in like what, 28 seconds? The results speak for themselves (on top of the craft and other pointers you make). Great video dude! I've been waiting for this one! How is it Thursday already?
Yeah man I think mini LED panel lighting is the best thing to come out in the lighting world in the last few years. I think a lot of people sleep on them too because of the assumption that BIG lights = better light. Sure it’s easier to get softer light from a larger source but the creative possibilities from a small panel are endless.. and like you said the setup is a BREEZE. Cheers man!
This is one of the best food photography tutorial videos I've ever seen. Love the pacing and style you used and the IKEA table tip was priceless. Really nice job Patrick. Your channel just keeps getting better and better and better!
A year later and this is still the video I send to anyone who asks how to take good pictures of ______ indoors. I’ve also added a few more black shelves to my own kit to provide artificial backdrop smaller than a whole table. Thanks again for putting this together!
Very helpful, thank you! Have a Nikon 3100 and I am intimidated haven't touched it since college and feel a little more comfortable with my phone right now but still haven't found my style but this is a great base! Thanks again!
Great Vid, but i have to say damn you... the AL-MX was in my amazon cart... guess I have to buy it now. Also fun fact, at a lot of Ikea's (whenever they open back up again) have used sections where you can almost always find a gem of a surface to use.
im sorry but this video is no helpful! if someone needs to learn food photography then go to someone who can teach a proper photography like the bite shot or we eat together
Way to Shoot Food..." Then, answer three questions: 1. Is better to use kitchen light or natural light? 2. What are the three "go to" angles? 3. Why does photographer feel that you should NOT use filters on food?
Perfect video bro. It was short, concise to the point. Needed the tips looking for my wife's cake business to take wonderful photos.. Her insta page @susi_cake . Thanks, Ali
I’m not above using the floor as a backdrop either 😂 and you’re right, the lighting for food is SO unforgiving. Thank you for these tips it was exactly what I was looking for!
