Food Photography: CUPCAKE

Hello Everyone, 

I recently visited Sandbach Makers Market to take some photographs and to find inspiration for my food photography work.

There were lots of fantastic stalls with an array of crafts and homemade treats. I will be doing a blog post about the Makers Market soon; however this post concerns the fabulous cupcakes I purchased whilst I was there!

Having looked around the various stalls and chatting with the lovely owners I decided that I wanted to buy a selection of cakes which I could take home to photograph - and of course EAT! 

There were lots to chose from however the CUPCAKE cakes were undoubtably the stars of the show and the lovely ladies on the stall were a major selling point! 

We had got chatting earlier when they had seen me wandering around with my camera so I introduced myself and told them I was a local photographer. 

The cakes on the stall looked incredible! And I knew they would be perfect to photograph! 

Just look at them!

There was a whole variety and they looked so perfectly decorated as well as incredibly delicious - which they were! 

Each cupcake had its own flavour and feature so I decided to pair them up with a matching sweet-treat on the side! 

They were really fun to photograph and these last two were most definitely my favourite!

I mean who could possibly say no to a Caramac Cupcake! <3

I really loved creating these Foodie Photographs - and of course eating the incredible cakes! :D 

When I had finished I decided to contact Vikki who owns CUPCAKE and created these fabulous cakes via Twitter to show her photographs I had created with her cakes!

She was really liked the photographs and was kind enough to offer me passes to the Eat and Drink Festival this weekend at Event City in Manchester! 

So I’m going to be heading there tomorrow and making a beeline for Vikki’s stall to get some more of her yummy cupcakes! 

Thank you Vikki for your very kind offer - I’ll see you there! 

Anyway I can’t wait to go to the festival tomorrow and I will hopefully get to take some great photographs of the event too - I’m sure a blog post will be coming soon!

If you would like to contact Vikki about her cakes then you can find her page on Facebook or follow her on Twitter!  

Take Care,
