It seems like everyone is taking photographs of the yummy food they are eating at restaurants. Or at thanksgiving a photo of that beautiful turkey could be in your camera. You may just want to take a quick photo and email or put it on facebook. But why not make it something truly lovely. It doesn’t take that much time to do it justice. Of course the most important element is the light. Always remember, “no direct sunlight”. Try to have the light at your back or directed toward the food. If at all possible use natural lighting. Flash makes everything flat.  The samples I’m going to show you are of cake but you’ll get the idea. No. 1 is natural light. No. 2 is room light.
