Follow these photographers to fill your social media with the most gorgeous images of food and to keep updated on great local brands
Let’s face it. We love to look at food. We follow restaurants, food bloggers, cooking pages and chef Instagram accounts to stare at mouth-wateringly delicious images of dishes that we long to have a taste of.
The art of food photography is much harder than it may seem, even though almost every single one of us whips out our phones pre-meal to snap photos ourselves. Lighting, timing, perspective, angles and that distinct eye in styling a table or a plate of food is essential to the success of your photograph. Trust me, we are not all food photographers.
To best capture food, I personally think you must be a foodie yourself. The synergy between someone who is able to appreciate the meal for what it is, learn to work around its temperatures, and how the dish changes as time goes by during the shoot only contributes to the excellence in their craft.
I have seen some phenomenal talents work their magic and remain thoroughly impressed at how they are able to capture the essence of the food before them–from its crumbs, crevices, jus, many textures, and deliciousness—in totality.
