Do you get nervous if you’ve to shoot with a new light or new space?

What if you need to work with a food you’ve not handled before?

Does any of that make you nervous? 

What happens is that, when we begin with food photography, we want to jump into all different photography techniques, big compositions, think about props, spend money on backdrops & we want to do it all quickly.

We see magnificent photos on social media, get inspired and all we want is to be able to create like them. 

 And, we want to get there fast.

But in this process, we often skip a few steps in our learning to fast track to creating “social-media” style photos.

 And that’s where the cracks begin to appear,  the difference between those who are technically strong in their skills and those who are not.

But what if there was a way to create those magnificent photos in a way that also made us focus on the technical aspects. 

That’s why in this week’s episode, I want to talk about a way for photographers to explore all the fun aspects of photography while working on strengthening technique and honing it.

…by working on flatlay photography.

I share why flatlays are different from other camera angles, how it can catapult your photography, and how you can utilize it to build specific skills as a photographer. 

Don’t skip a step in your learning, instead make that step exciting and fun to learn. 

Flatlays offer a way to explore photography in a way that not only creates magnificent photos but also takes your skills to the next level.

The good news is that honing your skills or practicing powerful photography techniques does not have to be serious and boring.

Whether we are a beginner or have been photographing for a few years now, there are always areas that need work. Flatlays can be an effective way to pick out the skills that need extra attention and work on it. 

I share exactly what you can do and how you can take advantage of the power of flatlays so that no new situation or food phases you. You don’t get nervous, but instead tackle it like a pro.
