5 habits for better food photos
-
Window light
Turn off the yellow downlights and the flash. Put the plate next to a window.
-
Get close
Let the plate fill the screen. Sauce, crumbs and steam sell the dish. The room doesn’t.
-
Hands and pours
A spoon, a pour, a hand tearing bread. Movement makes it feel like tonight.
-
Clear the table
Move phones, receipts and sauce bottles out of the shot. Wipe the plate rim.
-
One hero dish
Your best seller, in focus, on its own. Post it first.
Do this today
