Tips FOR SNAPPING FOOD ON Instagram #allaboutangles Images: @twoofakindcooks Getting the right angle is key to a great shot. Try a variety of angles to see which one suits your dish. #tellastory Images: elocalhaven Photography is about storytelling, so don't be afraid to show what's around the plate or the ingredients that went into it. #backgroundcheck Images: @twoofakindcooks What's behind the food you are shooting can be equally important as the food itself. So select something that complements the colours and tones of the food. #lightiseverything Image: elocalhaven Lighting will make or break a good shot. Play with the lighting until you have the desired effect. Use natural light where possible. #becreative Image: @foodintheair Photographing food doesn't have to just be about the food itself, nor does it always have to be serious, so think outside the box and try something new! #useaddons SAR As well as using the in built filters, there are loads of add ons to expand your creativity, from collaging apps to those that create purposeful double exposures. #followandlearn Take inspiration from the best by following your favourite food photographers online.
