Golden Harvest Stew
This ‘before’ wasn’t my worst (trust me… it’s coming), however I was still excited to trash my ‘before’ and improve the image. Natural light makes the photo warm and inviting by emphasizing the true colors of the food.
When the weather starts to get cold, all I want to do is cuddle up in a blanket with a warm bowl of stew. Especially a bowl of THIS stew. Red AND sweet potatoes, corn-on-the-cob, carrots, and tender, melt-in-your-mouth pork? I just had a large bowl, but I’m ready for seconds!

I’m happy the kids loved it! It’s a perfect Spring/Summertime soup. Thanks for the feedback, Tora!
Natural light is my best friend – it is so hard in the winter to take picts because when I get home it is dark.. so I have to be creative 🙂 This looks tasty. Got any left? 😉
You need to teach me your ‘night time’ shooting tricks, Yvonne! It is really difficult to get natural light during the winter.
