  5. Have lots of fun!!!

There are many ways and styles for taking pictures, but for food photography try apply the following to get the best results:

  1. Do NOT use flash while taking your pictures.
  2. As much as possible, use natural light to take your photo. Take your picture near a large window but not under direct sunlight.
  3. Allow your food to be the focus of the picture. Use solid color backgrounds that contrast with your plate. This is not a must, but noisy print backgrounds at times take away from the beauty of the plate.
