DMBLGiT April 2015 … the winners #foodphotography #foodstyling
“Keep props tasteful and simple. Remember the food is the star!
Robin Zachary
Food photography and food styling are best friends forever. One cannot excel without the other, and it’s an endless learning experience. The net is never ceases to amaze, showcasing the vast talent that lies before us. Food blogs are an important contributors too, some who have inspired me endlessly for so many years. Does my blog look good in this {DMBLGiT} …. or this……maybe this … or this? Styling and shooting food is music to my ears, thoughts that fill my head all day long. Call it an obsession, call it wasteful pleasure, call it developing a skill set or hobby, even shooting for clients, shooting is what I like to do best. I could spend hours with the camera, just whiling my time away, clicking colours, angles, produce, cakes … anything food. These are simple pleasures in the life of a food blogger. Where else would you find such a large-hearted community that is brought together by pure food porn?
And that brings me in to announce the winners of the DMGLBiT {Does my blog look good in this} April 2015. I am eternally grateful to the sweet Sophia Terra-Ziva and Ludmila Slokoski for taking time out of their busy schedules to judge this event. It means a lot to the food bloggers community when stalwarts like you who inspire us through every frame connect with us like this. Also HUGE thanks to Neel @ LFP who has resurrected this event and agreed to judge it too, despite traveling across continents!
Thank you ALL, the wonderful food bloggers for whole heartedly joining in. This event is on it’s feet only because of you. The enthusiasm, the spirit and the ‘wanting’ to learn is heartening to see. The judges have enjoyed looking at the submissions, and have offered feedback/comments on what you sent in. If you wish to hear how they felt, or how you can improve, then do drop me a line. I will be happy to share it with you. And now, time for the drumroll as we announce the well deserving winners.
