Wednesday was our day of cooking for the week. The recipes for the day were five different variations of risotto, the chocolate risotto was the best. This week our group was more prepared we had charged batteries and video tapes and head phones we even bough table cloths to photograph the food on. We did, however, enlist the help of a willing friend to hold the scrim and the boom mic and do other menial tasks for the reward of a buffet of risotto. Her help was imperative to the success of the day and we may need volunteer group members for many more shoots to come.
I was able to capture some great photographs that will be an asset to the recipe book and the website. I used a friends macro lens to capture some photographs but found that this was not the most helpful piece of equipment and decided to continue to use my own 18-30mm lens. As always, working with studio lights can be challenging but once everything starts working together, the end result is satisfying. As we continue to spend time together we continue to learn how to communicate affectionately as a group and how we can help one another achieve success.
