This is the first time where I use my sony camera to take pictures of food with no prior experience. The pictures I normally take are portraits so I have done alot of flash photography. I recently got a Softbox for my portraits to go with my v1s. I since then upgraded to the AD300 Pro for 1500 sek.

Anyways I went out to take portraits and this restaurant approached me asking for pictures in exchange for a payment, I said sure why not but I don’t have ANY experience taking food photography. I arrive to the shoot the next day, take around 500 images, keep 60 of them and edit them the same day. They told me to return the next day to discuss a price, after that they said sunday and then monday. My friend told me to charge them 220 usd the first time, I said why not. They counter offered 120 usd but since they already time wasted so much I said why not.

They want monthly pictures and are offering 270 usd for 5 hours of work not including the editing and retouch. My question is does that even seem fair? I was thinking more like 370 usd. They also recommended me to other restaurants 🤔 (5-6)

It’s been a while ago since I built this but it still looks the same

I decided to bring my camera with me to Korea/Japan with two lenses only. I brought my 24-70 Art 2 and my Viltrox 85mm 1.4 lens and guess what. Out of the 22 days I was away, the Viltrox was on my camera 21 out of 22 days!! It was so perfect? For every single thing, I also got a fisheye lens in Korea 12mm Samyang f2.8 manual focus for 160$ that the shop keeper help me setup for red peak display, it’s a nice creative lens but it’s hard to use 😂

In Sweden I was not really approaching people but idk why because alot of people looked great, I was just afraid to get rejected but in Korea it all stopped, I started to approach 99% of the people I found interesting, I gathered a total of 250 portraits of different people. So now when I’m approaching someone here in Sweden, I will have something that I can show me aka my previous pictures that I’m actually proud of to call my own 🥹

Also I did alot of daylight flash photography with my Godox V1S

Yes this bag is heavily used but that is also why it caught my attention. I have had alot of bags during these last 10 years, but lately all my goyard bags have been so useless ever since I got back into photography. But with this kelly I could actually make it work, it’s very worn tho and I wouldn’t say I’m a biggest fan of the color, is it possible to hand this in somewhere that could make this bag purple for example? Or like black with my favorite pokemon ”umbreon”? Or is that not a thing? I don’t care about value after I do the paint as I will keep this bag forever
