education . . .

not all photography is created equal. 
sometimes it clicks. 
sometimes it doesn't. 
figuring out your niche is an education in and of itself.



I have been given the opportunity to dabble in food photography by a local restaurant 
and yesterday I got schooled. 



it is imperative that the air-conditioner is turned on long before you arrive. 
it is important to let everyone know what is on the agenda for the day. 
it is important to be flexible and modify the agenda to keep the chef happy.
it is not required to use any of the pictures that weren't on the original agenda.

in photography,  as with life in general,
sometimes you need to step outside your comfort zone,
and when the food tastes this good,
it is well worth the stress.
and the sweat,
and the tears.
(actually there were no tears!)
