Here\u2019s how you can end up with images that could grace the pages of a cookbook or glossy Sunday magazine, rather than those unappealing and faded shots that accompany the dodgy menu at your local kebab shop.<\/p>\n<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41213 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-2.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas Photo Project - Food\" width=\"800\" height=\"1132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-2.jpg?resize=300,425 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-2.jpg?resize=283,400 283w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-2.jpg?resize=562,795 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n<p><strong>1. Shoot in daylight<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You don\u2019t need a lot of space \u2013 a nice bright window will\u00a0 be fine. Use a reflector, black or white card or even tin\u00a0 foil to bounce light into shadows, or flag off areas of\u00a0 the image to balance the light as you need.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Use a tripod<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Using a tripod will make composing and styling your shot\u00a0 a lot easier, as you can make small changes to the scene. For example, you can brush a little oil onto meat to\u00a0 freshen it up or wipe a drip of sauce without disrupting\u00a0 your framing. Working with a tripod also means you can use longer exposure times in dull winter light without\u00a0 the risk of blurring.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Study the food<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Decide if there is a particular element or quality that you want to highlight and see what angle it looks best from. Choose whether to shoot the whole dish or if a single serving would be better. For example, a trifle is best kept whole, but an iced cake could benefit from having\u00a0 a slice taken out to show the inside.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Consider your background<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When setting up your\u00a0 shot, a relatively plain background is always a good place to start. Think about the colours in the food you are shooting \u2013 don\u2019t choose a background that will clash with the food, or one that\u2019s so similar that the dish blends into it.<\/p>\n<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41212 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-1.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas Photo Project - Food\" width=\"800\" height=\"1132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-1.jpg?resize=300,425 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-1.jpg?resize=283,400 283w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-1.jpg?resize=562,795 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n<p><strong>5. Drizzle, don\u2019t pour<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you are serving a sauce with the food, try pouring a little onto the plate and just a drizzle over the food. A plate drowning in gravy won\u2019t translate well to the camera.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Tell a story<\/strong><br \/>\nUse props to set the scene and tell a story in the image. A serving spoon wedged into a big bowl of roast potatoes can make the viewer want to dive in and serve some up, or a sieve of icing sugar placed at the side of a shot of some dusted mince pies gives a home-made feeling. Try to only use props that are used in the preparation or serving of the dish. You may have a lovely vintage grater that you really want to include in your picture, but if you didn\u2019t use it to make the dish, save it for another image.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Build the dish<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pay close attention to the way you plate up your food. Placing carrots onto the plate one by one may not be how you would normally serve your veg, but it will help you to build the image and select only the best items to shoot. Keep an\u00a0 eye on your portion sizes, too \u2013 a smaller serving generally looks better\u00a0 than a plate piled high.<\/p>\n<a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-41214 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg\" alt=\"Christmas Photo Project - Food\" width=\"800\" height=\"1132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg 800w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg?resize=300,425 300w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg?resize=283,400 283w, https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg?resize=562,795 562w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n<p><strong>8. Backlight drinks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When photographing drinks, it is often best to backlight them, allowing light to shine through. This will make the liquid appear transparent and highlight any visual interest within the drink itself, such as ice cubes, garnishes and condensation on the glass.<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Dilute drinks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drinks often appear\u00a0 darker in a photograph, so watering them down can help to restore colour and detail, especially with red wine. Tea and coffee should also be made milkier than usual for the same reason.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. Bring back bubbles<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Champagne and other fizzy drinks can look great on camera, especially when backlit, but if you find that your bubbly is looking a little flat, a pinch of caster sugar will liven it up and bring your bubbles back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Whether you\u2019ve slaved over a hot stove yourself and produced an appetising treat or you\u2019ve let the shops take the strain, you\u2019ll find yourself with an abundance of tasty food on offer over this festive period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32,"featured_media":41214,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[375],"tags":[623],"product-category":[],"class_list":["post-41210","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-expert_advice","tag-food-photography"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.8 (Yoast SEO v26.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Christmas Photo Project - Food - AP<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Taking great food photographs is fun - and Christmas is a great time to try out your skills and learn more, check out this guide\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/technique\/expert_advice\/christmas-photo-project-food\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Christmas Photo Project - Food\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Taking great food photographs is fun - and Christmas is a great time to try out your skills and learn more, check out this guide\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/technique\/expert_advice\/christmas-photo-project-food\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Amateur Photographer\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Amateur.photographer.magazine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2014-12-20T15:26:55+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-07-17T12:02:04+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/16\/2014\/12\/Christmas-Projects-Food-3.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"800\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1132\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Kieran Alger\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@kieranalger\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@AP_Magazine\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Kieran Alger\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"3 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/technique\/expert_advice\/christmas-photo-project-food\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/technique\/expert_advice\/christmas-photo-project-food\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Kieran Alger\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/#\/schema\/person\/47bd8408e6e1b67584b93e6bf7702fb7\"},\"headline\":\"Christmas Photo Project &#8211;
