Food Photography : Chilli Peppers On Forks

Chilli peppers on fork

Sometimes when I take this kind of photographs I imagine some kind of abstract landscape, where the empty areas are just as important as the subject.

Food Photography : Pomegranate On Tin Can

Pomegranate on tin can

This set-up was a little complicated but the result works quite well. I used several black panels (from the right) in order to limit reflections on the tin can and two small white panels to bounce the light back onto the subject (from the left).

Food Photography : Aubergine On Lid

DSC_1079

…Continuing my personal project on fruit & veg portraiture and still life photography. I saw this lid and the colour was just perfect for this composition!

Lighting.

I used a flash light with softbox, placed on the left. I made a “box” using 3 dark panels and then I bounced the light onto the subject using three small white panels on the right.

Food Photography : Pear On Tablespoon

DSC_0993

A square composition for this shot. I think I have to experiment a little more with the idea of creating a corner in the background, because I really like the effect.

Lighting.

For this shot I used a side light with soft box and two canvas to create a corner behind the subject, then  I placed a black board on the left and on top to darken some areas on the background. I also used a small sheet of paper to reflect just a little bit of light onto the subject and the spoon (on the right).
