The food I brought for this project was Sushi, 5 different types. Props I used to make it special were a couple of Japanese plates that my mom had, a white knitted table cloth, chopsticks, a fork, a spoon and a Japanese looking chopping board from Mrs. Moncure. Five things that I learned from the food photography video was: 1. Take the photo at different angles, 2. take the photo from up close or a little far back, 3. work with the color scheme of the props you're using, 4. the background could be anything you find around the house , 5. play around with the lighting to get the right lighting. What I did to make my photograph similar to the professional food photography shots was, took the sushi and sort of wrapped it around the small plate of soy sauce and ginger. Then I decided to place the two shrimp rolls in the middle of the other sushi since it looks different from them. I also placed the chopsticks on the side of the plate to where its open and not just placed on the mat perfectly placed next to each other. The extra sushi I placed on the chopping board in the background along with the fork and spoon. Some careers or businesses that use food photography are like fast food restaurants ,for advertisement. What I think I was successful in doing with the food photography was styling the food and setting it up from the plates to the background. This is definitely something I would definitely do again because I love food and its fun.
