What a summer it has been summer. Working on Food photography projects in Edinburgh, eating lots of Scottish tomatoes and just enjoying being a food photographer in Edinburgh! Scotland. It seems like we cannot get enough tomatoes this summer! Speaking of Scottish tomatoes! they helped me to win.. well not exactly.. but still!

What equipment do I need to photograph in bright daylight?

I decided to take my Nikon d750 and a 50mm lens with me that day. I didn’t take my 35mm-105mm Micro lens, as wanted to swing by the Fishmongers after and it is a heavier camera lens. We all love 'golden hour' in daylight photography( 4pm), but sometimes you cannot choose your light. I would also recommend changing your white balance to an appropriate setting to suit the day. I wanted to capture the shadows and the direct light at the same time.
