Nick Nieto Photography

My camera has been at the repair facility getting worked on so I've been a little behind on my shooting and sharing. I just wanted to share a fun shoot that I did today with one of my all time favorite dishes. This spaghetti and meatballs was made with handmade veal and beef meatballs and casey's secret tomato sauce topped with a 4-cheese blend. It was almost as enjoyable to shoot as it was to eat. Buon Appetitto! Behind the Scenes: Shot the image above using a similar setup to the one below. The only difference is it was handheld and not locked on a tripod. I used a super long USB to tether the image to aperture for easy review on my big iMac screen. Shot with a 5D Mark II and the Sigma 35mm F/1.4 (a new addition to my lens family!).

ps. ignore my napping wife.
