[@annaheya2109]

nice and short thank you 👌🏻

[@MrKinglyon2010]

This isn’t photography. This is comedy!
Well done, on both ends!

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Hahaha!! Thanks so much!

[@destinyaaiyana]

Love you too ! Thanks for this.

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Haha thank you for watching!

[@TheSilentJorge]

That Stan reference was on point!

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Yesssss 🙌🙌🙌

[@fatveganliberator]

@@ThatGingerPhotographer When I see "put the light as high as you can above the dish" it makes me feel like the strobe's looking down on me smiling...
I'll see myself out 😅

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

@@fatveganliberator 😂😂😂 imagine if they came with a nice gentle smiley face on them just for this reason

[@Jascensionvoid]

Love this! I have canon rebel and wondering what lens do you recommend for food photography? I have always used iPhone for my foodie Instagram account, I highlight restaurant and food truck food. I have a nifty 50 but not sure if that is the best one for food photography.

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

I love my 50mm, I started with a really cheap 50mm to be honest and upgraded when I could afford to, It barely ever leaves my camera now, I reckon I could shoot any job on a 50mm.

[@simonrhys]

Did you get help naming these light setups?! Really very clever!

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

They came to me in a dream

[@hi_tamani]

Hey whats the name of the item you are using as your backdrop??

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

I actually don't know, they're just fake backdrops I ordered online ha!

[@FoodArana]

অনেক সুন্দর ❤

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

❤️

[@267don8]

The last setup is called “put the light as high as you can above the dish” what you do is..put the light as high as you can above the dish 😂😂😂💀💀

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Hahahaha I thought of that name myself, rolls off the tongue!

[@ThatManDWill]

Are you using a macro lens?

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Hey! It’s a 50mm 1.2.
I don’t actually own a macro

[@ThatManDWill]

@ThatGingerPhotographer Ok gotcha and thanks !!!

[@daviddixon6308]

Can you please share sole links to the lighting gear you’re using?

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Done, thanks! I've popped them in the description for you. The Elinchrom is the one in this video, but I've linked to my everyday flashes as well.
I have Four of the Godox flashes and two triggers. One trigger for each camera when I'm working.
Let me know if you have any questions!

[@daviddixon6308]

Thanks, I appreciate it. I'm currently using 2 basic Raleno Softboxes but my images are coming out pretty dull (I'm still pretty new to this). Would you recommend I get the more high tech flashes that you've listed in the description, or can I still get some decent results with my softboxes?@@ThatGingerPhotographer

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

It totally depends on the output of the light you are using, rather than the soft boxes. The soft boxes are just the bit on the end with the white sheet over them.
A flash will lighten up your image wayyyy more than a constant lightbulb would.

[@khwez258]

a like for the stan reference, tremendously executed

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]

Hahahaha yessss thank you!!

[@ThatGingerPhotographer]
