Interesting list. There are many many other links that I have found very useful. I like articles which give basics for food bloggers.

Steph,
I have not used Lowel lights and I think it still helps a lot of it is just to get a natural light source (like daylight bulb). It works perfectly fine for me and just costs about $10 or so.

Charmain & George, what do you think of those Lowel light? I’m considering them, but money is tight these days. Still, though, they seem to look REALLY nice for under $100.

Yogiwan, sometimes I search through Flickr for nice photos and then ask the photographers if I can use their work if I give them credit. They’re usually very helpful and excited that someone is interested in their work.

Thanks for this Stephanie. My shots are great during the summer, but I get so frustrated come winter when the light is dull, even at noon, and gone before supper.

Jesus, people are doing HDR food photos? That seems like huge overkill to me. As for now, I’m just wanting to get a cheap light-with-stand and a piece of gray backdrop paper so I can create a little area to take good shots. Half my blog is iPhone shots these days, which makes me cry a little.

thanks for this. It should help a lot.

Now if I could just get access to some of the good photos to add to my content and show off my cookware and bakeware products. I never seem to have enough.
