Food for Thought. By Laurence Chen
Food could be a beautiful subject for your pictures, the best your picture is gonna be the most you would like to eat it!
This article offers you tips for mouth-watering results:
1.Have a theme. Food fotography is just as seasonal as food itself; when you wanna to present a picture you have to consider sesaon-specific colors, textures, ingredientsand utensils. For example summer is considered as tomato season.
2.Bring options. It doesn't matter if your subject is food, you still gotta plan your shot with art and creativity bringing accessories to your subject to make it look better.
3.Keep it simple. The more complicated you set, the more things can go wrong.
4.Backlight glass. If there's a glass in your picture a good advice is to keep a white and clean background that will help illuminate the glass without direct lighting.
5.Mix light. Mixing flash and ambient light will make your picture look better. You can set it directly in your camera.
6.Set white balance later. Using a daylight-balanced flash, you'll be able to adjust your balance and make it warmer, cooler or neutral; it depends on the theme of the job.
7.Avoid fakery. Some photograpers uses a little oil on meats to keep them looking fresh but it is preferly to shoot straight from hte kitchen.
