I would suggest getting a Kodak Easy Share with Printer Dock and Charging Station. They are currently one sale at Staples for $150.~ Walmart also has them on sale but they only offer the camera and charging dock not the printer dock. I have the one from staples with the printer dock and it's great! I take great pictures with it, they are great for websites as well as printing for my portfolio 
Get the highest megapixel and optical zoom that you can afford.
The higher the megapixel the better quality and the larger the photo enlargement you can go.
The better the optical zoom, the less grainer your pics will look when you zoom all the way in on something.
but i think the sd 450 is also used by other food bloggers who takes very good photos...
I have to agree the Kodak Easy Share is a good choice. I had a Nikon and it wouldn't hardly hold a charge. I then dropped it and broke the lid off where the batteries go so my hubby bought me a Kodak Easy Share 6.1 mega pixal for our anniversary. I LOVE IT. My sister is a graphic artist and that is what she suggested to him to buy. So I guess she was right. I would go with that.
