Scott you're so kind, showing all your set up & workflow... This video is so valuable for beginner food photographer like me... Tbh i almost watch all your youtube vid from the begining 😀 thank you for your hardwork create valuable video content like this... I hope your voice get recover quickly 😀

Again Scott, thank you for opening the world to us. These are the insights we never get to see from any other KZfaq channel, even from the “best photographers”. You don’t know how much your videos have helped me throughout these past few weeks. I was able to get three gigs back to back, one of them involving BMW! Still, food photography is where my heart is at and this is simply beyond priceless.

As a photographer, these are exactly the kind of videos I hunt for on KZfaq. Thanks Scott!

Pretty ticked with KZfaq right now that I've typed "food photography" in the search so many times over the last few months and this is the first time your channel has popped up. It's pretty much everything I've been looking for. Can't wait to go through your other videos!

Hi, at last someone who has a pro photographers perspective on the real world of commercial photography, thank you. Keith.

This was so incredibly inspiring and helpful. I am halfway through setting up my own studio in my casita behind my home (rather than my dining room), and I just love seeing the workflow of fellow creatives!! Thank you so much for generously sharing your process and talents✨

Glad I found your channel. Binge watching now, thanks and hope you the best!!!

Thanks for sharing the knowledge. Excellent skills and delivery as well. Obviously I love your photography.

Fantastic video! Really insightful into every aspect of what made the shoot. It's really cool being able to see all the tips you have given in previous videos come together in a very practical way, thank you.

So kind of you going to this much effort to show us a shoot, it was a bit of an eyeopener to see how much work is involved funny I thought the last burger shot was amazing that harsh light to develop the glistening speculars on the meat was inspired I hope you didnt need to throw all of it away the burger especially looked scrummy all in all a fantastic video showing us a window on your professional life many thanks

This was so good. I like seeing how the scenes are set up, so I can try them myself. I also liked the business information, which I hope to make use of in the future. I learn so much from you. Ta very much

Yes! Now you've got me subscribed. Worth it! Thanks

This is a great video! I love that you also use the TSE lenses in your kit - I hardly see anyone mention them. I have the 24, 50 and 90 - they're so invaluable; esp. for food!

Great video. That timelapse at 12:40 with the sky is sweet.

OH WOW! I didn't think you guys were actually going to cook the burger!! I thought this stuff was supplied by the client! Nice!

This was great BTS

Really like that hamb ripping off the paper

This format is great, mate! Really insightful and informative.. more like this for sure! P.S. The clouds in that timelapse were epic!

I loved they video, not many photographers shows you how much effort is put into a single shoot, and it's critical to understand that, specially for people who think that with one or two shots they're donne for the day. I don't mind the length of the video, as long as you show how it is, exceptional video, I could watch the full day of shooting if you streamed it haha.

By far my favorite video of yours so far, I'd love to see more like it

Fave vid so far 👌 Learnt so much. Rewatching later so i can take notes. Thankyou for your detailed video. This is like free mentoring and so bloody useful.

Enjoyed viewing. Thanks for the insights Scott.

love this content, great to see the setup, the thinking behind it, techniques and the food styling tips are priceless (steaming, cotton wool to hold chips lol damn) in the summary it would be great to see the final hi res shots you got from each setup, not sure if you don't do it to encourage viewers to head to insta but would be nice to see the end to end of the project

THIS IS SUCH QUALITY CONTENT!!! thank you

Wow just found your channel! Seriously great for beginners looking for tips!! Thanks

I love it, incredible pictures.

Hey Scott, good video. When it's just a test shoot, where do you draw your inspiration from for each picture? Also, since you have a dedicated stylist, can you do an interview style video with her and get a point of view from the stylist on a shoot? Like her expectations of the photographer, and what she's expecting out of us?

Man! This was such a good one!

Super insightful! Great tips 👍🏼

cracking video, really interesting!

I'm so hungry now omg 😄

At 12:50, I thought you we're rapping lol. Great video, by the way.

Thanks for taking the time, very interesting Video. I missed it to see a more wide angle showing the total setup of lights in relation to the food. Try a zoom lens to be more flexible next time. Also I would have liked the stylist talk about the burger styling, a bit of food styling practises.

Very interesting content. For the final burger shot, I would like to know how each light worked and looked before it came together in the final piece. I like how you described and showed how the gridded light affects the image but would've also wanted to see 1 by 1 one how each light, lights the image.

Thanks as usual to share your BTS and your approach on concept and how to carry out idea behind👏🏻 very helpful content..one question: where do you buy backdrop? It seems so real. Thanks🙏

How do you make it look so clean in post. Specialy the pop art fries shot. All the wrinkles in the paper are gone in the final shot and it looks so seamless.

Another Video topic I would like to see is: how does it FEEL to be you? You are a top notch commercial photographer, but you often mention to be sleep deprived or having phases of high stress. Doesnt your experience make you calmer? Is your work satisfying for you, or do you still think of all the things that could have looked more perfect? Etc

Totally newbie question here and maybe its a stupid one but I'm watching this and thinming... if the backgrounds are paper.... how do we avoid grease from the food from ruining the paper... or?? is that typically an issue? This vid is awesome by the way

MY GOAL AND DREAM IS TO HAVE A STUDIO LIKE THIS!!!

This was really interesting!

Hi thanks for the great content - nice to see a working professional give such good advice - 2:02 who do you recommend for photo backgrounds - I've looked at few but heard mixed reviews.

mmmmmmmm, steamed cheese

Great vid! Noob question re flatlays: how does one align a camera so that its lens points precisely perpendicular to the subject plane? (Copy-stand fashion, but without a copy-stand :-D.) My efforts too often result in some sort of skew.

Would love to learn a lil bit about how you edit your photos!

wonderful work, thanks for sharing; however I am not so great in English, May I ask how was the lighting for the shot at 12:26? I am not sure if you only used the softbox, or the head with the deep reflector, or both together? sorry if that sounds dumb

where do you get your backgrounds? they are amazings

Hi at the begining of the video - you show a background panel - where do you buy them from.

Scott, how do you go about avoiding color cast on the food when using colored backdrops like these? I'm just getting into studio food photography, and this has been a real struggle!

I'd like to use that floor as a background

I noticed your stylist had used a lemon, can you let us know what she used it for?

Thanks for the insight. What type of backgrounds where those?

Did u need to focus stack the last shot?

What's in your styling kit?

Great video! A very useful source of information (especially on the lighting how to side). I find the music too loud between the passages. Otherwise a great video! Thank you!

Great vid. Scott but the muzac is too dominant and thus annoying. Volume down by 50% would work better. Much appreciated!

Hi Scott, kind of you to share this video. Would you be kind enough to tell me what brand of c-stands you use ? I'm based in Italy. Thanks :)

was she melting cheese with a steamer?

Interesting backstage and interesting channel, subscribed.

Great job but unfortunately stock image kills photographers That you spent one full day for three images shot only these days unfortunately in the stock images website anyone can get these kind images for less then £1 I am sorry to say but that is the fact

I love your work but I gotta say video ain't your forté huh xD The parts where you were hand holding the camera were incredible difficult to watch, for me anyway, because of how close up the shots were. Perhaps you didn't have a wide zoom to hand but it definately had an affect on my watch time - great video though love your stuff man you didn't lose a sub today that's for sure xox

How on earth did you manage to get a licence for butter knives?

I love your video and l thank you for sharing. However, the 'music' in the background was so distracting that l couldn't watch the video to the end. It was at a level that made you struggle to hear it, giving it the main focus of your attention. It was also very uncomfortable to listen to in terms of tone, l found it very jarring and unpleasant. I hope you don't mind me providing this feedback, nothing personal at all. Smiles, Sue

Not for nothing, but you don't know what your shooting the day before the shot. I watched about a minute of the clip before I stopped it. Personally, I didn't believe you after hearing this and stopped watching.
