I love reading photographer blogs and Siebe Warmoeskerken of De Vetpan studios writes one of my favourites. About a year ago Siebe posted a series of photos called Cookie Splash and the concept was so inspiring I knew I just had to try it.
It’s a bit messy so I took my cup outside but if you could do this inside if you have a cloth handy! To get the shot all you need is the drink in a pretty cup, some cookies to decorate and a small heavy object to drop in the cup for the splash. I’d recommend putting your camera in continuous shot mode, turn up that ISO so you can get a fast shutter speed and switch your lens to manual to make sure the camera takes the shot without pausing to refocus.
I’d love to see other people’s Cookie Splash photos so please leave a link to your’s in the comment section.
Siebe Warmoeskerken - Hi Rebecca,
I just stumbled upon your blog and I fell in love with it. When I readed this post and saw your results I realized your qctually the first that made a series equal to mine, I’ve seen hundreds of reattempts but no one came as close as you did.
heidi - These are amazing!
justine - came across from picture holidays and what a fantastic blog you have here, these pictures are wonderful – all your pictures are wonderful and I absolutely love how you have done your hearts, great work!
Linda - This looks like so much fun, I can’t wait to give it a try. Thanks for including all of the instructions. I’ll let you know how it goes as soon as I can.
Keri - Hi Rebecca.
I Loooove these shots! i can’t wait to try it.
So glad I found your blog and these tutorials from your gorg pix in MCP Actions. What a compliment to you to be featured there this week.
I think I might jump on board with the 52 week project. I love the thought of taking a photo a week with a “theme.”
Cheers from north of New York City in a small New England town
