I am so happy to hear that you have had such success with many of the recipes :) As far as my pictures goes, Ryan takes them but I have watched him so I know what he does. First of all, rarely do we use natural light (Gasp!). It's just that the pictures you see are of our dinner and we usually eat dinner a little late after the sun has set. So to get the right lighting we have a small pop-up lighting tent that we put the food in. We then use our regular lamp with a compact fluorescent light and shine that into the box. Ryan got our light tent from work but I just did a google search and it seems like you can buy one for around $50-60. There also seems to be a few good tutorials on how to make one yourself if you don't want to buy one. Once you have the tent just mess around with different angles and positions to find the feel that you want your pictures to have. I hope this helps!

This sounds easy and yummy. Kung Pao Chicken is a favorite dish of mine to order at local Sichuan restaurants but I’ve never actually made it before. This sounds easy and yummy.

I love that so many of your recipes include items that I already have in my pantry. I bookmark so many of them and have successfully tried several. Thank you for your continued inspiration and great recipes! I wondered if I could ask about your photography. One of the main reasons I keep coming back is your incredible pictures. Do you have any pointers to share? I have a Canon DSLR but as you can see from 99% of my pictures, they're not professional and the color seems to be the culprit. Do you take all your pictures in natural light? How do you do that at night when you're presumably cooking dinner? Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance and keep up the good work! I’m so glad I found your site! I love that so many of your recipes include items that I already have in my pantry.
