Kodak Article: Food Photography

  Kodak Article: Food Photography
  
Tips on how to take delicious pictures of food:
Timing: Make sure to take the pictures as soon as possible, because most foods tend to melt, dry, shift, sag off
Have the presentation objects (napkins,flowers) set up before hand
Table Setting: Professional and realistic, but doesn’t take attention away from the food
Composition: zoom in and keep everything in focus-use a tripod; eliminate background distractions
Focus on certain area of the dish, background out of focus/blurred (depth of field)
Show off table setting with food as a highlight
Lighting:Natural light; near an open window
If natural light isn’t available, use bounce light
Editing: Adjust contrast, brightness, crop, touch up, etc…
