Photography Tips and Tricks :

My Top Pick for a DSLR: Canon Rebel T7i DSLR!

This is the camera I use for ALL of my blog’s photography, and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it!  Seriously… I’m obsessed!

Easy DIY Camera Bag Purse

There’s no need to carry around a clunky camera bag when you learn how to turn your favorite purse into a camera bag!  I have two and I LOVE them!

Photography Reflectors

Every photographer needs at least one good set of reflectors.  This set comes with white, silver, gold, black, and sheer!  I use my sheer all the time to reduce glare and filter bright sunny light coming in through the window in the afternoon.  Then I use the white to bounce back light on my subject, or the gold or silver to add gorgeous tones to the hues of the object.

Canon 50mm f/1.8 Lens

This is the lens I use for food photography for sharp, crisp images and a blurred background.  It’s also the lens you’ll want to create those gorgeous bokeh pictures {with the blurred lights in the background}

Bokeh photography example that I used this lens to shoot…
