One thing that's really easy to fix and keep an eye out for that can make food look terrible is the color temperature. Food just looks bad under the yellow-y light and it's a really easy thing to fix

~~**food**~~ This one probably needs a larger size, the top of the steak is in focus, but not the plate because it's a double cut steak and really thick.

corkskroo posted:whatevs nobody cares here's some breadstuffs Your stuff has gotten a lot better, but I think they could do with some more context. The all-white thing works with some foods, but I think things like bread and stuff, could really do with some context. Maybe a wood table, or a basket, etc.

Also I can see the table is dirty and the edges are dirty, you should wipe that poo poo down. Super clean is one way to go, but I think a big part of ramen is context too, so maybe you can push it that way. Get a cute little kid slurping it down or something.

Omg that top photo is adorable! I really like all them though, the cookies look so yummy. Nice packaging too, creative.

Did some food work today. I love how simple the best lighting really is. (Bare bulb bounced off a white wall with a reflector in this case)

Mmmm those cookies do look good, except the dirty fork is distracting, you could clean that up in a second. You should open international shop in the US!

Yes please! Everytime I see a new cookie or pastry by PIMM I really want one and think "I should order some!". Then I remember that I'm on the wrong side of the ocean  Also I have thought about experimenting with the X100 for food shots since I also hate lugging my set-up around, and it's nice to see that it works out very well.

Well, it's no "subverting the modern aesthetic of food photography" ...  But it was yummy anyways It's been interesting photographing restaurants with the sun going down so early lately, yet going for the sun-soaked look. Especially since I can only carry so much equipment with me.

Pretty! Is that an on camera panel, or a standalone?

I hate the majority of the low-fi food photos in this thread except the latest ones from Reichstag and maybe a couple other people. But I dunno, what do I know? Also if you're going to thick crust it totally needs to be dipped in grease and double baked. For all commercial food photography all looking the same a surprising number of people can't do it at all.

I think the line blurs at a certain level. As with any genre, people are chosen for certain cookbooks/ad campaigns/etc because of their artistic vision. Not to mention, you know, the whole pop/commercial art discussion in general.

Cut the guy in half, it saves the oven, and bonus nicely frames the interesting bits.

1st AD posted:I really like the one with the long and thin board and long dish, I'll try again in a few days with stuff like that since it looks nice and sleek. The other photos you posted just seem way too busy and the lighting is very flat. Depends on how busy the rest of the scene is. If its a tablescape, definitely useful, but if its a visually striking dish, utensils can distract. Keep your silverware clean though, and make sure it matches the style of the dish.
