Cooking Video

My wife rarely has the patience to let me shoot anything she's cooking, but I told her I would shoot fast. We made this little cooking video. I used one light with a softbox. I shot with the pocket 6K in bmraw. I must say, I love shooting in raw when I am in a hurry. If I don't quite nail exposure or white balance, I can easily fix it in post. The trick is not to clip the highlights. I also like using my Canon EF-S 17-55mm. She would have killed me if I started changing prime lenses.

She even did the voice over for me (don't be critical of her, she's not a pro, but I appreciated her doing it). She just came up with this recipe that day and I really liked how the soup turned out. My stomach was happy, too (sometimes dairy can be a little rough on me).

Nice piece, nice recipe and I think her V/O was great! Please pass along that I especially like that she said " add the _____" and not "add in the ______" one of my pet peeves with cooking show hosts.
