From the Publisher
Inspire your viewers!
Your photos should get people thinking up stories to fit the depicted scene.
Choosing a Background
A background should always enhance a photo, not dominate it. Make sure your background doesn’t compete with the subject for the viewer’s attention.
Setting the Stage
The days of immaculately styled, technically perfect food photos are over. Authenticity, plausibility, and reality are on trend. We want photos that are irresistible and real.
Where Props are Deserved
In a food photo, you can use props to help enhance the image. All you have to do is stick to your chosen theme and tell a compelling story—there are no limits to where your imagination can take you.
