Book description
Do you need help making your food look as delicious as it
tastes? Are you a “foodie” hungry for more tantalizing
photos of your culinary creations? Do you have a food blog that
you’d like to take to the next level, with better images and
a stronger business strategy? Then this book is for you!
In Food Photography: From Snapshots to Great Shots, Second Edition,
photographer Nicole Young returns to dish up the basics on
everything you need to know to make great food images, from getting
the right camera equipment to mastering the key photographic
principles of aperture, ISO, and shutter speed. She offers tips on
styling food using props, fabrics, and tabletops; and she explains
how to improve your photos through editing after the shoot.
This new edition features many brand-new images and examples,
accompanied by up-to-date discussions on achieving good lighting
and composition. In addition Nicole covers developments in the
industry that have emerged since the publication of the first
edition, such as the entry of mirrorless cameras on the scene, and
more. She also provides a brand new post-processing section
focusing on Photoshop Lightroom, showing how to improve your photos
through sharpening, color enhancement, and other editing
techniques.
Beautifully illustrated with large, vibrant photos, this book
offers the practical advice and expert shooting tips you need to
get the food images you want every time you pick up your
camera.
