Hi friends! Finally posting this photo!! 😮‍💨😍 Sooo…let me introduce you to my beautiful friend, Simiane, who was very pregnant a few weeks ago! 😉 To explain the story, this photo was pretty hard to take. Not because the photoshop project or the pose were hard or anything but because it took us so long to get there. I was supposed to take the pic of her myself but I got sick so many times, it was impossible to meet each other. Time was running out so we decided to do it from a distance. I was at home and was directing her and her lovely husband via video call to take a picture of herself, in the right position 😮‍💨😅 She then sent me the pics, I assembled everything and added a few extras (you can see my stories for details! 😉)! And boom, we did it!! 😍 Im also happy to report her baby was born just a few days ago and she is absolutely gorgeous!! 🥰 I have had the pleasure of taking some pics of her and I will share a few soon ☺️ Hope you all have a lovely day!
Hey friends, long time no see 🤭 Today I decided to post a food pic, for a bit of a change (in fact, I think it is the last one I took)…Im working my socks off for a uni at the moment (translations, video reviewing etc) and it’s taking aalllll my time. Although Im enjoying what I do atm, I also miss photography a LOT!! 😔😩 Im almost at the end of that work project and will come back soon but in the meantime, Im posting this photo of purple basil I love to remind myself of the good times! 😉 Hope you have a lovely day! 😘
"A moment of peace, at last!" : this is the title of this photo 😆 And this time I was heavily inspired by a famous logo. Can you guess which company Im talking about (answer in my stories)? Hint : my pic is very, very similar 😅 Regarding the technical aspect, Im not going to lie…it wasn’t exactly the nicest position to sit like this. I also made the mistake of shooting right after a meal. So you can imagine the pain 😂 I’ll post my setup in my stories and you’ll see how sketchy the whole thing was. I almost fell a few times! 😅 But all in all, it was a pretty easy and straight forward image to create. I left the whole thing deliberately empty - I wanted you to be able to feel the silence. Basically a dream of mine as a mum (and Im pretty sure Im not the only one) 😆 BTS in my stories as usual! 😘
Im finally posting that video (sorry for the delay, I was mega busy last week! 😵‍💫🥴)! Soooo…for the details : for this photo, I needed to be very organized since there was lots of people involved and they were coming from pretty much all around the world. I had to take the initial background picture with my friends in mind. Then I took pictures of myself in every single position…3 times! 😅 I had to try them all, to make sure it was going to work. Then I filmed all the details for each of my friends so that I made sure they would understand how to do it (showing where my camera was placed, where the light came from etc). And then i sent them all a very detailed explanation on how to pose. They then all did it at home and sent me their photos. Luckily, and also because my friends are all pro photographers (😉), it worked really well. I photoshopped them in the picture and then edited everything properly and changed colours as needed…and boom! 😉😝 I haven’t counted how many hours I have worked on this project…but it’s taken a veeeery long time! 😅 Im not complaining though, I’ve loved every minute of it and I would start again any time! In fact, I have a few ideas for the future so keep your eyes peeled 😉
So guys…Here is my secret as a food photographer! I’ve finally caught them in the act! As you can see, every time I shoot, I have a lot of extra help 😉 This time round though, they all seemed to be relaxing more than helping me 😂 Now…Let me explain this crazy idea. A little bit more than 2 years ago, I created an instagram group with other food photographers from literally all around the world with the intention to support each other’s work. As time went by, we started talking about other subjects than just food photography. Fast forward 2 years, we are more than just a group of random photographers! We talk about pretty much any aspect of our lives and we have so much fun. I absolutely love it 😊❤️ So the other day, I asked them all if they wanted to be part of one of my crazy photoshop projects…and they said yes! We have never met in real life (yet! - thanks C***d 🙄)!! But this is definitely our plan!) but thanks to the magic of photoshop, we are almost all reunited in one place (minus a few of us sadly, but next time for sure! ❤️). The technical side of this project was a bit crazy as you can imagine 😅 I asked my friends to take pics of themselves in a precise position and send them to me. I then photoshopped everyone in the right place. This was definitely an interesting challenge! 😅 I will talk about it in more details when I post a little vid of the process. Now, let me introduce you to them : in the mug, on the left is Andrea @gourmet.photographer 😊 Leaning against the mug, holding the book is Mojca @mojcaklepec 😊, next to her is Dora @mgracebakeshop 😊. Falling from the cinnamon stick is Kris @kbs._.kitchen 😜. My husband @blackboxmind is holding the stick (replacing a friend who couldn’t participate in the end). And yours truly is simply holding a marshmallow…and hiding in the mug too! 🤣 Lots of love to @alliebeau @annacookingconcept @shotby_omer and @apsolutvalentina who couldn’t make it but who are part of the group and amazing photographers too! Check them all out and give them some love, they are all sooo talented! 🥰❤️
Just posting the 2 little videos I made of the last two photos I posted 😉 Hope you have a lovely day! 😘
