So, as a creative being that I strive to be, I cannot help but to always try to criticize my work until I feel like Snooki’s armpit. Yeah. Pretty gross. BUT then – as The Jealous Curator says – I stop listening to my inner asshole critic and I move on and continue to create. Cause seriously, who wants to feel like an armpit all the time.
Along the way you find the work of peeps that inspire you, and in this case I found the work of photographer Andrew Thomas Lee, who has a more than excellent portfolio of lifestyle, interior, and food shots.
Aaaaah! Look at those oysters! (I HATE OYSTERS) Those nasty little salty snots look AMAZING and tempting, and the lighting, oh the lighting on those smoked lil’ fishies, so good! I think it’s safe to say that if someone makes you want to eat something you definitely don’t like, then they are super good at photographing it.
Enjoy the rest of Mr. Lee over here

I couldn’t agree more. His photography is outstanding. Sometimes I feel that I prefer looking at good food photography than eating the food itself.

yes! Especially with things you may not enjoy so much. IT’s basically like looking at art.

Woah that is some amazing food photography. I love the use of salt, really reminds you of the sea. :)
Gabriel says
I love salt in photos! It always looks so yummy!

Hi there! I absolutely know how you feel – food photography is so stinking hard! Even the shots you love start to feel like amateur hour after a while…oh well! Onward and upward! That to say, I think your food shots are just lovely – so, well done. I’ll be bookmarking your blog for some much needed inspiration :)
