I absolutely loved this article. Andrew Scrivani has been an inspiration for my new blog Extraordinary Eats, which features food writing, food styling, and food photography. His work is beautiful and he has so much to share. Thanks for a great interview and post!
Thank you Jaclyn. I loved talking to Andrew and was a very informative conversation I thought.
Thanks for the interview Neel. i have been visiting your blog regularly to read/listen to the interviews. I love learning and there are very few blogs that focus on what you do. Thanks for being such a great resource!
Thank you for listening Trissa. l specially love doing interviews and chatting with professionals. There is so much to learn that I am just amazed every time I have these conversations. Thanks again.
The holiday season is always a busy one for me so I just got around to listening to this interview today. Thanks, Neel.
I like the idea of using a clipping files. I have a collection of file folders on various subjects like food, dance, dogs and people that contain clippings from magazines, promotional postcards and advertisements. I use them for inspiration when shooting assignments.
I also have a small collection of props. Some, like playing cards, pens, eyeglasses and pipes, I’ve had for years because I find them useful over and over again. Others I find, use, then get rid of because I don’t want to repeat myself by reusing them.
Hello Les, That’s great. These props are life saver at times. Many times it is hard to realize how much a photo can change with a prop, unless you use one. I like your last comment, very new approach and the thought behind it. Getting rid of a prop because you won’t use them is an interesting approach.
Thank you for listening to the interview.
