Nagi profile photo_300pxHi there! I’m Nagi and this is my story.

I walked away from a corporate finance career because I wanted to make a living where my passion lies – creating and sharing the food I love.

In May 2014, I picked up a DSLR for the first time and started my food blog, RecipeTin Eats.

10 months later, I was making an independent living from my blog and related activities, including photo shoots for commercial clients.

The speed at which I was able to learn photography came down to 1 thing: practice. I took 22,000 photos in 3 months. With more and more practice, things began to click.

Little things that make all the difference. Things that other photography books simply don’t explain.

This is the book where I’m sharing all my game changers with you.

I do not use fancy equipment. In fact, my camera is a hand-me-down worth $250. My set up is budget.

Then and now

WHO THIS BOOK IS FOR

“This book will not only inspire you to be a better photographer, but it will actually make you one!” – Beeta, Mon Petit Four

This book is for anyone who wants to learn how to take beautiful photos of food that looks as good as it tastes. It is suited to beginners as well as those who have been photographing for a while and are wanting to step up their photos.

It is aimed at those who are working within a budget in their homes, using consumer grade equipment, not professional equipment. It also leans more towards shooting food for display on the web rather than in print, such as in magazines and cookbooks.

This book is written on the assumption that you own or have access to a DSLR. However, the majority of the book is applicable to those using point-and-shoot cameras or iPhones / smartphones, including: lighting, styling, composition, camera angles and editing.

Mon Petit Four profile“The Food Photography Book is the guide to creating those gorgeous food shots that you see all the top bloggers producing…..Best of all, the information is presented in a highly organized, succinct format with tons of examples and step-by-step tutorials that make all the tips feel feasible to carry out. This book will not only inspire you to be a better photographer, but it will actually make you one!” – Beeta, Mon Petit Four 

“I still can’t believe I took this picture….”
