What I Learned - Food Photography

PHOTOGRAPH BY PAULETTE TAVORMINA

- Good lighting is key to making your food and photograph appealing

- Adding little things in the photo to hint your viewer to what it is you're making is important. For example if you were making blueberry muffins, you could add blueberries around the photo to make it clear to the viewer

- Adding objects like string, tarnished silverware, leafs or flowers, etc.

- Using fabrics underneath your food set up
