01 | IN THE MOOD FOR FOOD WITH LARRY TIEFENBRUNN
“As you probably know by now, the hottest new item in the Platypod family is our new Mini Super Clamp. People are grabbing them by the handful. Why? If you are doing macro, food or product photography, you never have enough hands to hold up the things that you need such as mirrors, reflectors, branches, string and wire to suspend the object, etc.
As soon as I received our first shipment of mini clamps, I wanted to try it out myself. Inspired by food photographer Andrew Scrivani (check out his interview on Photofocus here!) and his book called “That Photo Makes Me Hungry“ I snatched a bunch of chocolate chip cookies that Mina made for our grandchildren and arrange them on a plate…”
02 | REAL ESTATE PHOTOGRAPHY WITH CHARLENE SLIGTING
“Buyers visually fall in love with their next home before they walk through the front door. As the owner and Visual Storyteller of Docha Real Estate Photography, it is imperative I am able to capture the correct angels and beauty of every property for my clients. At times this has proven to be difficult with my travel tripod. I was thankful to learn about the Platypod max tripod and the unique ability it has to be placed in spaces my travel tripod cannot while attending the ClickCon Conference.
Incorporating the Platypod Max and Benro IN00 ball head with my Nikon 7ll into my toolbox of gear is a game changer for the images I can deliver to my client…”
03 | DRINKS AND DESSERT WITH BOB COATES
“I was asked to add some pizazz to my food and drink images. How do you do that? Motion is one possibility. Changing up the lighting is another. I used both techniques in my last shoot at Sound Bites Grill in Sedona, AZ.
The restaurant is busy. Since they’ve made their opening hours five days a week, I was asked to create the photos while they were open so the bartender and kitchen staff would be on hand to prep cocktails and desserts. That way no one would have to come in on a day off to support the photo shoot. If you have the option to say no and only work in uninterrupted times, do so. I didn’t. And it was Platypod to the rescue!”
