Cupcake Anyone???

I have been asked by a friend to take some photos of her cupcakes so that she can build a portfolio, I took some photos on Thursday in my conservatory can anyone offer some advice as I feel that they look a little cold, and I just can’t seem to get the pink colours right on a couple of them.  Here is the link to the photos and if you need anymore info just shout

    Hi Tracy

    Cakes look good and as you said a little cold.

    Suggestion, Try using a grey card you can get these from photography shops like Camera World, Jessops & others or even from a magazine. Place within the image take your picture. Then you can adjust this in photoshop or other editing suites.
    Your exposure can be corrected by using this grey card as well as it seems a little under exposed. then a touch of curves to give more contrast adding more saturation to the images giving greater depth. You could also us a great tool I use thats not cheap but good called the XpoBalance heres a video link.

    All your images are slightly cold so you can give this treatment to all on them.

    Hope this helps.
