Food Photography is a LIE!

Food photography can be difficult when a subject like ice cream melts quickly. Two simple food photography tips for pre-production and editing will make shooting real ice cream easy. During today's shoot, I also dive into a bit about color theory and composition that helps my subjects pop off the screen. Enjoy! #foodphotography #photography #photographer #foodphoto #studiolighting #photographytips #learnphotography #productphotography

Really appreciate all the content you have put out throughout the years, aiming to seriously revitalize my career as as food photographer, it's so much fun to do.

[@skylerburtphotos]

Thanks! I hope you do

I meant the table when you are talking about the set up 3:11

[@ba553y]

Not sure if it was intentional but there are little tips and explanations that mean so much and aren't mentioned in set-up videos. Makes this video gold for me! Thank you

[@skylerburtphotos]

Awesome! I'm glad you liked the setup, I'm toying around with the idea of creating an audio only

[@southernaccentfoods]

What a great video! I have a cooking video coming out for Valentine's Day which is a romantic dinner for two. Shrimp in puff pastry with a white wine butter sauce. Try scrambling around getting close-up shots of a butter sauce being poured over a dish before the butter goes hard again! 😂😂😂

[@luizevangelista8589]

You are amazing man! Where can I buy a table like that? I would love to have one 🙏

[@sdpixels3054]

Hello Skyler! Big fan for your work and this channel for almost 5 years now. Great content always!
May i know which tablet you are using in the video? Do you suggest tablets for food/product photography to use as monitor and light edits? Is iPadPro good choice?

[@skylerburtphotos]

I use the Samsung S tab 8 as I'm a PC guy, but I assume the ipad would work. I mirror my screen and use capture one.

@SkylarBurt +SkylarBurt how did you set up the white back drop?

[@jpalczewski]

love your videos ... what tripod head and parts do you use that allows you to slide your body out into the middle on an arm extended out from a C stand

[@skylerburtphotos]

I Have a whole parts list in the description on the store

[@JasonTeale]

I am glad to see more of your videos coming out. Always enjoy them.

[@skylerburtphotos]

Thanks, how ya been?

[@JasonTeale]

@@skylerburtphotos it’s been a rough few years but I think things are slowly getting better this year.

[@filipkowalkowski7854]

Very elegant setup, really like how all is neatly put together!

[@skylerburtphotos]

Thanks!

[@annehenry3743]

Love the masking tool tip, saves food waste...sometimes it glitches though and leaves a black brush stroke instead, history tool is good alternative.

[@skylerburtphotos]

It's a good food waste saver! And time saver

[@annehenry3743]

....absolutely 100% xxx love the videos. Great inspiration....

[@ViccoGallo]

Well, yes, of course you can do that, but the shadows are not right on the 2nd bowl--in my eyes, the viewer gets a slightly weird feeling, subconsciously.

[@skylerburtphotos]

?? I'm not sure what you're pointing to. The light didn't move.

[@ViccoGallo]

@@skylerburtphotos haha, sorry, silly me! I thought you were just cutting-out the bowl and inserting it, rotated ! :-))) Good Trick!

[@MrNasserRadi]

Thanks this is great

[@ThomasFransson]

And we learned some lingo on top!
Thank you

[@skylerburtphotos]

You bet!

[@dianai4373]

Can you please link the mount that you used to attach the camera to the rod

[@skylerburtphotos]

It is called a grip head. All things can be found on my store in the description

[@dianai4373]

@@skylerburtphotos Thank you

[@thearabicdp]

Missing your videos man. You must be busy with work. All the best with it. Don't forget about us though ☺️

[@skylerburtphotos]

Thanks man! I am super busy, but I'm trying to post at least once a week now.

[@thearabicdp]

@@skylerburtphotos sorry, I don't mean to pressure you. I know how it is these days and after two crazy years of quarantine 💀

[@wearetrackclub]

Nice tips, great to see the process!

[@skylerburtphotos]

Thanks! 👍

[@jonathansimba6085]

Which do you prefer Capture One or Adobe Lightroom?

[@skylerburtphotos]

I prefer Capture One for all things tethered and editing. On top of that it has great file organization.

[@heiko4297]

Yes, baby. Greetings from germany. P.S.: Thanks for the color of the year tip. How do you like it personally?

[@skylerburtphotos]

Ah it's ok, not my favorite, but I understand why they went with it.

[@heiko4297]

@@skylerburtphotos My association with the color magenta is and will always be Deutsche Telekom ... but I kinda dig it.

[@skylerburtphotos]

Yeah, totally didn't think of that but your right.

[@jonathansimba6085]

It's Thursday babyyyyyy

[@skylerburtphotos]

Yes it is!!!
