To: all of you folks who post yummy looking food pics. Do you have assistants? What is your work flow? By the time I wash and dry my hands, prepare the raw materials, wash and dry my hands, stage the picture, and take the photo, I am exhausted. 2 Roasted and peeled Roma tomatoes, 1/2-1 Jalapeno pepper, 1 clove garlic, 1/2 red onion, some salt. Blend.

Oh that salsa looks good. Where are the corn chips. I have only posted here a couple of times and only of completed dishes so I can't help you with work flow

I think everyone who posts pictures has their own technique. Some people stage it and some don't. Just have fun doing it!
Your picture looks great! I knew it was salsa before I saw the second picture!

Thanks Curmudgeon. I love salsa so much I put it on lots of things... not just chips. Omelets, for example.

Thanks Jill
The main thing for me is making sure that none of the ingredients wind up on the camera.
