Have you ever wanted to watch a photographer set up a shot? Join me in this food-styling meets tabletop-photography class and I'll lead you through a few different DIY setups that you can recreate in your own kitchen at home. In this class we will be photographing fruit and taking easy, actionable steps to add drama and life to your images.
