Food! YUM

1. Shoot from a lower Angle than you think you should.

    -Photographing food from a fork's point of view is different which means interesting. Shooting from

     a lower point of view, can make the food look somewhat majestic. For example, if you shoot a thick

    steak from atop how can the viewer know that steak was really tender or thick?

2. Crop Tightly

    -A tight  crop simplifies the image, and makes it more easier to see the details. This makes the focus

     all on the food, and not on crazy backgrounds.

3. Shallow Depth of Field
     -If you go with a limited focus the image will turn out better. If the background is way out of focus,
      than the need for propping is less restrictive. Just be sure not to over due, with different colors
      blurred around the food.
4. Add a little Oil
    -Use a little brush with vegetable oil to run across the food. This can make it look hot or wet. This
     can come in handy especially if the photo shoot is taking longer than expected. It can make food last
     longer.
5. Do Not Over Prop
    -If the food is supposed to be the center of attention, then don't use so many props and take away
     from the food. If it doesn't belong it should be removed.

ENJOY!
