Question:

Any advice about how to take good pictures of food plates?

— Lilly Boulianne

Answer:

Well, I I'll say that in a couple of our courses, you know, the pro plant course is one of them that comes to my we do have a lesson on photography Basics and you know is focused on smartphones, of course and in all the functions that come along with that and you know, I'm not a food photographer so I am not going to Act like I am here but you know, I will say take a look at some of the functions that come along, you know with the owner's manual of your phone and do some experimenting, you know with that, you know, whether it's a portrait sort of a setting or something else and some of them have food photography settings these days. Um, you know, take pictures, you know with these different settings and then compare them so you can understand what the results might be. Okay, there's certainly could be times when you want to take a food photo, but you don't want to use an automated Foods setting for example, okay, so I'm just gonna kind of let you go and experiment and that respect, but if you're not in our Pro plant course, for example, go ahead and go ahead and write in at support@rouxbe.com. And you know, we can direct your question to somebody that may have more experience in this area. Thank you.
