When you shoot your food, you associate those meals with certain memories with certain people. Thus, when you look at your food photos, you will remember the wonderful and joyful experiences you had (with the people you shared that meal with).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
3. Shoot yourself<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Shoot your shadow, your hand, your feet, your reflection– in any situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vienna, 2015<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n As an aesthetic, I love high-contrast black and white photography. To shoot high contrast monochrome, you can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Shoot JPEG on your camera with a high-contrast black and white preset.<\/li>
- Shoot RAW on your camera, and later process your photos with ERIC KIM MONOCHROME 1600 presets<\/a><\/strong> to add a dramatic monochrome look.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Shoot anything which interests you, and just stay consistent with a high-contrast monochrome look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
