Practical shooting tips

• Lighting is critical

  • Use natural light where possible (near a window, avoid harsh overhead light).
  • If using artificial lights, aim for soft, even lighting across the dish.
    
    
    

• Simple setup

  • Use a clean background (plain surface, simple props).
  • Keep the focus on the food, not the surroundings.
    
    
    
    

• Consistency across your menu

  • Shoot from similar angles and distances.
  • Use similar plates, props, and lighting so the menu feels cohesive.
    
    

• Equipment

  • A good smartphone camera is fine with proper lighting and focus.
  • Clean the lens, tap to focus on the food, and avoid heavy filters.
