There is lighting that you can use that is continous (ie, not flash/strobe), but Strobist only deals, I think, with flash photography. Studio food photographers often use flash because it's less hot and therefore the food won't melt or wilt as quickly. But it is important to distinguish between studio strobes and the flash that is on the camera. The strobes can be strategically placed to create gorgeous effects... the flash that is on your camera is almost always a bad idea for food shots, since the light coming straight forward doesn't usually make the food look very good. hope that helps! -L Hi Bekah,

When people reference off-camara flash photography--does a light actually have to flash or is the phrase merely referring to lighting that is strategically placed around the subject? bekah This may be a dumb question, and will show my ignorance,but I suppose I am just learning about photography…
