Coffee Cake

Ok this is a total, I'm way tired today to take a photo so I'm gonna post one I took the other night while doing some product photography for the bakery team.

 

About the photo:

 

This photo was taken after the glory shot of the coffee cake as we were tasting it. But it pretty much had the same feel of the rest of the set that night. High keyed, to the point of really getting overexposed.

 

The entire set was shot with 2 speedlights on each corner of the room ceiling bounced. This allowed me the freedom to move about and concentrate on shooting instead of moving lights around. When the team keeps coming out of the kitchen with more stuff you just have to move.

 

No setup shot for this but it is similar to this shot and this one as well.

 

Oh and a special note to Chef, "The Daddy Mac will make you jump jump"
