Challenge – “Food” Oct 24
25 October 2024 @ 19:00
The Online Challenge brief for October is as follows:
Theme – Food
Yes, this theme is extremely broad so there is no reason why we should have a lack of submissions entered. It is a theme that everyone can relate to as we all do it every day. However, how you decide to represent “Food” is down to you. The golden rule for food photography is “Does the image make me want to eat it”?
If the answer to that question is “Yes”, then you are cooking on the correct gas mark. Food photography is a genre of photography that focuses on capturing beautiful, mouth-watering images of food.
Take into consideration the following points:
- Styling and Composition
- Formatting (Colours in specific that positively represent the food).
- Angles (45, 90 degrees)
- Action Shots (Indulge the viewer to make them feel as if they are right there).
- Props – The fun little extras make food styling so much fun. Pretty dishes, colourful textiles, or vintage silverware. Distressed wood pieces, white plates and bowls, or granite countertops.
Ready Steady…Off you go!
