Here is why I started taking pictures of my bread. A close friend of mine, my sister, and my daughter, all wanted to get into bread making and they can't necessarily always just come out to my place to see how it is done. They have had initial lessons so kind of are in the know about baking bread but sometimes things go wrong and they need to trouble shoot.
Also, I make many varieties of bread, some of them quite similar, so when I open up a recipe on my computer, I like to check the picture to make sure that is really the bread I was wanting to make.
If I try a new recipe and think my friend or sister or daughter would like it and if they were capable of making it, I send it to them with the picutre of the finished product. Many people do not like to try new recipes without seeing a picture of the finished product.
So I take pictures of my bread, attach it to the recipe I am using, usually the loaf or roll as well as the inside crumb, and then they at least know what the finished product should sort of look like.
If something goes wrong at their end, they take pictures, send them to me, and I can do a bit of trouble shooting for them on the spot, while things are still fresh in their mind about making that recipe.
