If anyone asks me my favorite editing software for all of my photos, without hesitation I say Lightroom. No question. I’ve never been a photoshop gal because of the learning curve. Lightroom is so easy to use, I was so excited to learn that I figured it out in just minutes. (I am not tech savvy at all)
It sure makes my job easy as a food blogger being able to touch up my photos ever so slightly to get just what I am looking for.

There are so many before and after pictures I can show you, but this is one I did just last week when I was photographing my Double Chocolate Butterfinger Cake. We had some friends over and their dog was outside my window watching my cake, lol! I snapped a photo and as you can see on the left, it was dark and gray. With just a few touch ups from Lightroom you get the picture on the right. Love!!

Food, Nature, My Love & I
For now it’s pics of my little Yorkie, Biscuit. But when the babies get here…. 🙂
I mostly take pictures of my daughter, but I do take photos for my blog as well. Thank you for the chance to win!
I take pictures of my kids mostly. I need to take more to better document their awesomeness!
Pictures are of family, which includes our fur child!!
I take photos of my niece and nephew the most, but when I’m not with them, I take a lot of nature photography.
I take pictures of my food.
Because I am trying to lose over 100 pounds, most of my photos are of myself. I also take a lot of pictures of family members.
I love taking pictures of my twins and everything they love to do. As a full-time working mom my escape is capturing moments in life and then scrapping/editing them to cherish over the years. I would love to win this!
Food and craft projects!
I take photos of things going on in my life. Pictures of my daughter, activities, or trips. I also take pictures of anything out of the ordinary that I create in my kitchen.
I take pictures of my kids and my friends’ kids!
I take pictures of food and flowers most often.
family and pets!!!
I take pictures of my puppies, vacations, and all of the precious children in my life.

I most often take pictures of whatever I’m working on around the house – so it’s usually either food or something outside (like the garden, etc.).
I take the most pictures of my sweet fur-children (2 dogs!). Would love this for when we have kids in the near future though!
I definitely take more pictures of food. One look at my blog and it is evident that I need to win Lightbox!
I would love to say I mostly take photos of my two children, but that would be a lie. Flowers are my thing. I love everything about them. How delicate and beautiful they are. I’m into shooting up-close (macro) I love to show everyone things they don’t normally look at. But I do take lots of photos of my kiddos and my 3 American Bulldogs. Would love to win this, I don’t have an editing program and most of my photos are SOOC (Straight out of camera). Thank you for the chance to win this!!!
Starting this fall, it will be our new daughter!!
My nieces and nephews.
More than anything else, I take pictures of my kids. I also enjoy taking pictures of my food.
I mostly take photos of food and my family 🙂
I definitely take the most pics of my kids participating in sports!
What a great product! Thanks for sharing. I find myself obsessed with taking pictures of my dinner plate. If I have worked to create a masterpiece, I feel that it should live on! I also love candid shots of my four legged children, they do the silliest things!
Cheers,

I mostly take pictures of my baby girl.
My kids.
My hubby and I take lots of pictures of nature. We have been visiting alot of wildlife refuges near our area and have seen some of the most beautiful bald eagles and osprey’s here lately.
I primarily take photos of food 🙂
I photograph my three children the most..second place is my two goldens and my two cats..Then I am a birdwatcher..
I take tons of photos of my husband’s and my adventures; whether it is exploring our new city through a beer tour, or pulling weeds!
Definitely of my kids. I try and capture all those ordinary things they’ll be thankful for later. Walking down the sidewalk, silly self-portraits with me, swinging on a swing… So much easier to do in the digital age!
Tons of pics of my kids. My daughter is special needs and getting her to pose is impossible, she is a mover!! lol We have 3 boys in sports and are always trying to get great action shots! Also pics of our pets and our adventures!! 🙂
My kiddos, hands down. I would LOVE to photograph my food more often, as well as scenery, but my kids always take center stage!
