Before the work can begin, you have to understand what the end result is going to be. You have to meticulously choose the right dishes and accessories. The best idea in this scenario is to contact a food stylist who can provide crucial advice. Preparations for this kind of a photography session can help avoid chaos later on.
For any culinary chef-d’oeuvre you have to create an appealing background and environment, so that the photographs look stylish and memorable. It is necessary to choose a background color that fits with the dishes and the food product itself. Choosing the right accessories can help emphasize the main course, highlighting its advantages in the photographs.
The right lighting can help make a photograph a piece of art. There exist three different variants of lighting applicable to food product photography sessions:
Natural. If the main idea is to provide the most natural look to the food products, then sunlight should be used. In addition, natural lighting can be combined with artificial lighting sources.
Artificial. This type of lighting is far easier to work with for professional photographers. However, for creating this type of lighting you have to implement expensive equipment and accessories. Then again, your photography session will not depend on the current weather conditions, nor will it need to be during the day.
Pulse. In essence, this type of lighting covers all kinds of flashes providing the opportunity to create a unique lighting pattern. Using pulse lighting needs special skills and experience with reflectors and various accessories for studio flashes.
To provide high-quality food product photography, you need to use a macro lens. The best options are 60- or 105-millimeter lenses..
A good photograph is distinguished from a bad photograph by having the main elements in the center of attention. The additional elements are placed in such a way that they do not clutter the image for the potential audience, but instead create additional meaning. In other words, all has to fall into place on such a photograph. In addition, you have to make sure that no spots, bright reflections or crumbs are present on the food products. Making high-quality food product photography is easier with Stylephotos. Our photographers’ work can greatly increase the popularity of your products, as well as your online sales.
Any kind of product! No, really, from cosmetics and candles to towels, electronics and more products, anything our clients require! Our product photographers specialize in professional photography, product photography, fashion photography, food photography, and commercial photography.
Quality product photos can be done as tabletop shots. Overall, product photography involves any kind of product photo shot apart from clothing items, and oftentimes, it includes additional props in the shot instead of a simple background.
We can capture almost any product using our e-commerce photography equipment. However, our product photographer would need to use our Cyclorama Stage for oversized items such as couches or beds to provide our clients with high quality photos .
It depends on the type of product and your Style Guide. Generally, we recommend having 3-5 professional photography shoots per product and a short video (video content converts extremely well). Each image would showcase the product from a different angle, and our product photographers would change the background and add any props if needed. Then, we edit the raw images and send you the final versions of your high quality product photos and your product.
