Nowadays, one thing that many people must do before eating is to take pictures, but how to take pictures of delicious and attractive food is a problem that many people think about. Here are some tips for shooting delicious food. I hope you can shoot delicious food.
The angle of 45 degrees from top to bottom
The closer the distance, the better the natural texture and delicious taste of the food can be. This way, the food occupies the middle of the picture, and the mistake will not be too big.
Shooting from directly above the dining table
This shooting method is a bit difficult, because many factors have to be considered. Basically, the table is used as a canvas, and then food, tableware, light and shadow are used to compose a pleasing scene. Therefore, photographers must have certain aesthetic skills and know how to use the elements at hand to shoot successfully.
shooting horizontally
shooting horizontally is suitable for stacked and layered foods, such as layered muffins, tiramisu, or mixed drinks with distinct layers.
Interaction with people
Linking food with people's actions will create a' story' and a lively sense of interaction after photos, and also create a sense of time flow, so that food is no longer like being frozen in a static space.
Side shot of the dining table
Taking a side shot from the dining table seems to turn the food into a supporting role. However, the environment and atmosphere around the dining table set off the preciousness, uniqueness and delicacy of the food.
Use props flexibly and creatively
Using props will increase the interest of the picture. The silver knife and fork at hand, beautifully colored napkins, crystal clear goblets, your mobile phone, watches and accessories, and even the business card of this store (many restaurants or cafes now make beautiful business cards) can all become your tools.
