Food Photography: Bundt Cake

More delicious baking from the wife today, this time a secret recipe!  This was shot with two strobes, one left, one right, on manual mode 1/64 power.

Lighting is always crucial with food photography, particularly with a bundt cake.  One of the things I wanted to accomplish with this next shot was to show the internal texture of the cake so I needed to ensure that the “hole” is adequately lighted.  I simply elevated the left flash to achieve the look I wanted.  Gotta love the shadows too.

And finally, enlarged to show texture.  Don’t you wanna grab a fork and dig in?
