My Photos

I didn't know much about photography or had an interest in learning about it before I started blogging. Now I have officially fallen in love with the art! This blog represents my transition through styling, cameras and lenses. I have a lot to learn and a lot to improve on which is why I enjoy it so much. It is challenging and oh so rewarding when you get a great shot!

I started the blog with a basic point and shoot camera, the Casio Exilim. I currently use a Canon Rebel XSi and used the standard 18-55mm lens for about a year. In February of 2011, I began using a Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM for most of my food photos and a Canon EF-S 18mm-200mm Zoom lens for some food photos and all my scenic and garden photos. I have two Ego Digital Imaging Lights to photograph food at times of limited daylight in the winter, but always use natural light whenever possible.

We just recently got a Panasonic Lumix DCM-ZS6 point and shoot for traveling. I've heard great things and we needed something that was easier to carry around when out and about at night and especially during international travel. I still have a lot to learn about it, but I'm enjoying the photos so far.

You can find some of my photos on Foodgawker, and Flickr, or simply take a look around the blog.
