Question:

Can you share how to take Instagram worthy photos? Any suggestions on making IG page look cohesive?

— Tokie Williams

Answer:

Well, there are a couple of things if you're going to use your phone. having one of these phone lamps is very very helpful. Good lighting. First of all for your photos is very important. and you want to show The nooks and crannies of your food you want them to be plated and garnished? Well, I think that you have to think about what your theme will be. In terms of is it going to be about you or is it going to be about food will it have reflective thoughts will you have recipes on it? So I think again, it's fun to go through. other Instagram sites, will you be making stories will you be doing reals? You know, one of the nice things about using reals is that you can do a voiceover. So what will your voice sound? Like there are so many things to consider but most of all it should be a reflection of you and what you like to do and that's how you develop the theme for what you want to do and make it look cohesive. So that would be my easy recommendation. It sounds to me like Toki you have everything already in order and you know what you want to do and that's so exciting. So I would say that if you're going to make beautiful food tag at Rouxbe plants because we love seeing what students are doing. And we also love to share student work on our own Instagram pages. So I'm gonna keep an eye out for you.
