As much as I love sharing food and recipes on my blog, I really do LOVE taking pictures of food. In my home growing up pictures were taken all the time. My father loved photography, taking pictures and even movies. My sister and I were subject to thousands of pictures,we hated it (I think she hated it anyway, I did). My father had professional equipment and his love for photography showed in all his work! I don’t use any fancy camera.
Surprisingly, I have received many compliments on my photos and to be honest I don’t use an expensive camera. Honestly, it’s only me, my iPhone 4s and a photo app for editing. I’m sure obsession with making things look pretty coupled with my father’s love for photography are the main driving force behind my photos. I often wonder what my father would think of all these cell phones and cameras – I could only assume he would have adapted very quickly and snapped on. Although I never told him, I do like taking pictures and even though I am far from a professional photographer I think my father would be proud!
