Summary of the presentation:

Let's dive into the challenging world of food and product photography. You don’t need a studio to take professional-grade still photographs! We will cover the fundamentals of photographing still objects, products, food, and more, as I show you how to create and tailor your own lighting setup — on any budget. We will cover how to optimize your lighting setup for your needs, and even learn to shoot glassware and other tricky products! Whether your goal is to make an eye-catching food blog or just to expand your photographic skill-set, Mark Stoltenberg will help you improve your food and product photography skill set.
