It’s funny how nervous I get before shoots lately, you would think that I’d have more confidence the more I shoot. But strangely enough, I feel like it’s almost the opposite. i don’t know if it’s because lately I’ve been pulled in a bunch of different directions, or if it’s because I’m getting paid to do a lot more of these shoots than I have previously. What I do know for certain, is that I’m buuusy, and I miss going out to just shoot.
Don’t think I’m complaining though, I’ve not been so busy that I Can’t get out to go shoot, I’ve just been too lazy to get my ass out there and go shoot. I talked about being in a “freeze” a couple weeks ago, and then finding that I was almost instantly “defrosted” when I shot the mural that QVO and Hippie did. And I think I need to go do more of that “random” photo adventures more often, because I truly do believe they’re beneficial in so many ways.
There isn’t much of an “update” or “story” this week, especially in comparison to my usual blog length. But, I wanted to just share some thoughts that have been rattling around in my head, and maybe inspire myself to get off my ass and Just Go Shoot as well.
Hope you have a great rest of the week, and I’ll catch up with y’all again soon.
Oh, and I was practicing at shooting Food Photography the other day. So here’s a few photos of what I got. I just used my phone, the available overhead lights in my work lunchroom as well as the table, a cheep plate and placemat I picked up, and then plated everything that came in my “to go” box. I edited the JPEG photos in Lightroom as best I could, and I think it turned out pretty good for what I had available.
