Tag Archives: color![]() ![]() Food Photography – Miso Soup Marathon Food Photography – How I photographed my miso soup. These things start so innocently like…”hey I’m craving some miso soup. How about I make some and Wow that was a lot of work! Nice review. Enjoyed it. I would very much like to see how to make this miso soup, but the blog post seems to be well done. I hope to see more posts in the future. What perfect timing. I was asked to do photos for a cook book and I said, “Sure if I can figure out how to do it.” Now I am going to take your little set up there and try it out. Awesome! Kent, once again congratulations on you blog. Very clearly explained de f. stops. And the food photography is my favorite. Great work! Great stuff, thank you for the tips. As I am increasingly doing recipes I needed some pointers for getting decent food shots – it looks fiddly but it’s worth it, for sure. Followed the link via twitter. Love the blog, very generous of you to share your expertise – keep up the good work! Wow!!!!!! I am impressed. I have started photographing some things we bake and have started using a “set” of bakeware or dishes just for photography. It photographs so well. Kristi, Thanks for the tips, I never thought about using a reflector, quite a noticeable improvement when one is used. The soup and photo look great. This article just reminds me of how much I do not want to be a food photographer. LOL Well then that makes me a “little nutty” now doesn’t it? It takes about 100-200 photos, several hours, lighting, styling, and cooking for me to post just one recipe. The key ingredients (pun intended) for food photography really comes down to lighting. Composition and styling are key, but lately the trend is SIMPLICITY and making you want to lick the food off the page. Ha. Unless it’s for ads, magazines, etc. Then the styling will likely be more important. Using reflectors (make-up mirrors work wonders in your own home) is a great way to bounce the light and rid the food of shadows. Great post! Right up my alley as you can tell! Happy Food Snapping!
