  1. I need a scholarship to this so badly…I consider myself a foods rather than a foodie, but I notice that after the lovely alcohol my photos are less and less professional …and then it is too late!!

  3. I think that if you take photos before you eat or drink, it’s useful. Even if I have a drink, I stop entirely to take the photos. I will say that I do get fuzzygrams occasionally
