Just a little post about how much I enjoy photography and how happy I am that Photoshop can take my normal-looking pictures and make them look better.

A few years ago, in an attempt to take better pictures for this blog, I got my first DSLR camera.  Now, 8 years later, I’m on my 3rd camera and finding photography to be almost as therapeutic as sewing.  I wanted to share this photo that I took for my website and show just how awesome it is to be able to make my shots SO MUCH BETTER in Photoshop.

Here’s the original photo:

Here’s the final:

A couple of my favorite photography youtubers:
The Bite Shot – Food photography tips that I find carry over well to craft photography

Now please feel free to GO MAKE SOMETHING and then take a picture of it!
