Sometimes it’s just fun to play around with food photography. I work for some pretty prestigious food photography clients, but I still find that to really play, creatively, I sometimes have to go it alone and shoot some editorial type food photography. Most food photo clients come to me with a layout in mind and some pretty tight parameters as far as backgrounds and recipes go, so to give myself a little creative freedom, I will occasionally play on my own, hoping to attract new, like-minded clients. Don’t get me wrong in any way, I am still very happy shooting on white backgrounds and to specific layouts, but from time to time, and maybe a little more often in the future, I’d be willing to try some new things, even for fewer dollars, necessary… but not too few, mind you… :o)
