Introduction
I had this book in my brain long before I started writing it. I love food and
I love photography, and it was just natural to blend the two together and
evolve into becoming a food photographer. I also know there are a lot
of other photographers and foodies who want to make their food look
gorgeous, too. Because of this, I felt a strong desire to write a book that
would help food lovers create images that truly expressed the beauty of
the food they wanted to photograph.
We all develop our own style of photography, but one thing rings true
when photographing food: It needs to look delicious. The purpose of
this book is to guide photographers at all levels to make their food look
as good as it tastes, and to do so as naturally, organically, and simply
as possible.
