with a passion for food and works
on cookery TV shows and events.
She recently did a Food Styling
course at Leiths School of Food
and Wine to learn how to make a
plate of food look photogenic, but
Sue feels her photo knowledge is
letting her down. We’ve teamed her
up with Canon food photographer,

trade and see how he takes tasty
pro photos – fit for websites,

CANON PRO APPRENTICE
WITH more than three decades in
the food industry and 20 years as a
head chef at some of the UK’s top
restaurants, JP has a love for food
few can match. 10 years ago he
suffered from a heart attack, after
which he retired from cooking. He
jokingly says it’s the best thing that
could have happened, as it was
then he chose to turn his passion
for fine dining into a new vocation
as a food photographer.
