Lift Your Cravings to Food Photography

If there’s one thing that makes me hungry, it’s food photography. A good photographer can not only snap the shutter, but they can make you feel something. In this case, you should hopefully be able to almost taste and smell the following items.

If you like what you see, head over to the Lift restaurant in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. I’m going to be taking you on a 3-course journey that will hopefully make your mouth water as you enjoy these food photography shots.

A good tip for food photography is to utilize a lot of different lighting. I took all of these shots on the roof of the restaurant in a little open area. It was good to have the natural lighting but it’s also nice to have a few speed lights around to get full coverage on the food in order to see all the colors and textures. It’s also important to get close and to find different perspectives.

A cool aspect of food photography is being able to point out the little details and also being able humanize environmental objects. After getting a few shots of the food, grab some friends to interact with the food. Have them pick up a chip, cut the chicken, or getting the first bite of a juicy burger. Go cook up your favorite dish and capture a delicious perspective to share with your friends! Check out this website to see some more awesome food photography shots!
