Gathering Food Technique Collab

Gathering...

Now that the cold weather is breaking and Easter just passed, gathering together with family and friends feels only right. But the reality of the current situation is that the gatherings aren’t going to happen for at least another few weeks. So for now, the best way we can be together in the future is to be apart now. Preferably six or more feet.

Ironically, the collab theme this month hosted by @foodcapturecollective members Larisa (@doctor_cupcake_) and Alesandra (@a.modo_mio) has a theme of “Gathering”. While most of the photographers may have shot a large table spread including some of their friends, we were mandated to think outside the box and practice social distancing by only including people who live with us. Click the hashtag for the #monthlytechniquecollab to see what ideas the other photographers came up with!

I created a “Who’s coming to breakfast?” table setup. I’ve been wanting to do a breakfast shoot like this but time has never been on my side. Well now it is! I set the table the night before woke up at 3:30am and finished shooting at 7:30am. A cat nap at 1pm and I was good to cull images for the rest of the day. I did have to resort to my 18-55mm kit lens to get the shot but I had fun from beginning to end! When Corona season is over and I get back to work, I’m coming for the Sigma 35mm f1.4 Art lens!!!
