This week at club - Food photography practical

Hi everyone. This week at club is a practical evening. We'll be looking at taking some photographs of food. 

I'll be bringing some props along (plates, cutlery, boards etc) and some food as well. 

If you have anything you could bring along, that would be great, perhaps you'd like to bake a tasty looking cake, or a pasta dish in a nice bowl? 

There are thousands of ideas for food photography on Pinterest. I've created this board with some ideas that people are contributing to at the moment

Equipment wise, you would be best bringing a lens that is relatively fast (2.8 or faster ideally) to get a nice blurred background

If you have off camera flash, you might find it useful, together with a softbox for nice soft light.

 

See you all on Thursday!
Jamie
