Behind the Scenes: Olive Bruschetta Setup
Posted on Jan 28, 2011 | 2 comments
Here’s the behind-the-scenes setup from yesterday’s “Olive and Goat Cheese Bruschetta” photograph. I used the North-facing window in my condo (much easier to do food photography when next to a kitchen!), set the food on a hand-painted/distressed “table”, and used a large 5-in-one reflector (silver side) to add some fill. Pretty simple setup, really. :)
Camera: Canon 7D
Lens: 70-200mm f/4L IS
Aperture: f/5.6
Shutter Speed: 1/8 second
ISO: 100
Eating easier than photographing.
I’ve been looking through your blog trying to get ideas on how you light your food shots. I have been playing with food photography more lately to trying and get better food shots for my wife’s blog. http://www.lovingsimpleliving.com. It has been really helpful to look through your behind the scenes posts and see how it all works.
