Do you have any photo editing tips for some of us that don’t regularly bring Dslr’s outside? Like for instance trying to take food pictures in very dim restaurants with a phone camera? Do you perhaps have any editing tips for lighting? xD

Good article. #9 is where I really need help. Even with ASR set on, I still get blur. Tripods help.

Tanker: When i started, I only used the A mode. But M gives you much more control over both aperture and shutter speed. Hope this helps : )

I always cant seem to get the lighting right.. using a noob Nikon D60 with 18-55mm lens. Should I use A or M or S or P mode for best effect? I am still learning ^_^

thanks in advance!

Thanks for sharing – the light in your pictures always look lovely! Definitely looking forward to more tutorials

Btw, just wondering if you tend to use manual focusing instead of auto focusing when taking the close-up shots for food?

Hi Brad, are u a professional food photographer? Or do u have another day job? Are all of your food real food or are some of them fake? Do you use those artificial chemicals to make the food look nicer?
I ask these questions cos i am interested in food photography too and i just got a dslr and am aiming to be an amateur food photographer…

Do you mind sharing what lens/external flash do you use? Some restaurants have super dim/orange lighting, but your photos always look like they’re taken under broad daylight! What is the trick to do this?
