10 Tips and Techniques That Improved My Food Photography

10 Tips and Techniques for Better Food Photography ~ by My Utensil Crock

In the spring of 2012, I bought a camera. I was headed on a fancy vacation with very dramatic scenery, and thought this was as good an excuse as any to buy myself a grown-up camera.
