food photography...

do you take a picture of everything before you eat it? maybe you nudge your friends to wait till you've gotten a photo of their dinner? i'm guilty!

i like to photograph food, therefore i cook--much more to take the photo than for the food, but along the way, i've become a more creative cook. but, i digress.

last week, a group of friends and i were able to spend an evening with local St. Louis photographer, Steve Adams. Steve's food photography is... well... his passion for shooting food is obvious! he is also a very kind and patient teacher who not only showed us how he creates his amazing shots, but then let us run amuck in his studio using his props and lights to shoot for ourselves.

well. that was one dandy evening! let me show you...

shutterclubbers getting ready for the tour...




 behold the prop room...





finally, we were able to pry ourselves away and continue the tour...







then, we got down to work and Steve showed us how he builds a shot...






now it is our turn...
