Yancey's Fancy

Here is the first shot, the 'gourmet' one. This is the 'Bergenost' cheese. I can't decide between these two, so I'd like to get some feedback. The other shot soon to come...

PB Illustration

I guess I took a more simple approach than others, but when I think of news story illustrations I think of something sort of generic, so that's what I went for. I wanted to show the texture of the peanuts, but still have some other elements in the shot to make it interesting. I'm not extremely happy with the shots I got because I had a lot of technical issues, so I didn't get to experiment much...but here it is...

Wine & Beer

Here are my shots for wine and my second shot of beer. You can click on the photos to see larger versions. This particular shoot was so much fun! Thanks to Amanda & Mary for helping me. :)

I can't decide between the two wine shots...what do you think? The first is more of a 'classic' look, but I really like the splash in the second. For the first shot, I just used the softbox, and for the second with the beer, I wanted to highlight the glass and make it glow, so I used a second light w/ the snoot, and the softbox above. Any suggestions or comments would be great! :) Thanks.

Quick tip...

Since we are going to be sharing our photos on here, I thought I'd link you all to a site that explains how to disable right-clicking (in other words, other people stealing your photos) on your blog. I've put it in my blog but haven't tested it yet, but it should work. Here you go:
