With the popularization of blogging, many Internet users became interested in maintaining their own thematic magazines. In particular, the topic of cooking is very popular in Internet communities. Together with the recipes according to which the dishes were made, it is customary to upload their photos. But in order for them to turn out to be successful, you need to use certain approaches.
Necessary
- - camera;
- - tableware;
- - cooked dish;
- - lighting lamps.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a high-quality background against which the dish you filmed will look as aesthetically pleasing as possible. It is best to use light colored surfaces such as a white tablecloth. This will help focus the viewer's attention on the subject.
Step 2
Choose high quality, beautiful tableware that best suits the type of dish you intend to photograph. So, salads look good on flat white plates with minimal ornamentation. Do not choose too deep dishes for soups. And ice cream can be placed in small transparent vases.
Step 3
In advance, select the lighting scheme for the shooting location and prepare the appropriate equipment. If professional equipment is not available, use halogen or fluorescent lamps. Combine diffuse and directional light for high-quality shots.
Step 4
Decorate the dish nicely when placing it in the dish. Use the ingredients it contains. For example, leave a few whole olives or berries to garnish on top of the dish. In a bowl with soups or finely chopped salads, you should put a few sprigs of fresh herbs.
Step 5
Take a photo to decorate the recipe. Place the dishes with the dish on the prepared place. Turn on the lights. Set up your camera and start taking pictures. Choose from different angles. During shooting, if possible, stabilize the camera by setting it on a tripod.
