8 Tips to Gets Awesome Food Photo Using Smartphone
( Make A Resto-look Food Pics In Your Home)
Hey guys,,as u know that i realy
love to cook and eat food so i hv been tried to take food pics and learn
everyday how to get a high quality pics. Usually i use my DSLR Canon Camera but
nowadays i become so lazy to use such camera so i have other alternative to use
smartphone camera instead. Not everyone get the camera but i think everyone
already has their smartphone so why we don't utilize our phone to take the pic
and get an outstanding result. If u wonder how to do or take shoot of food pic
try my tips here :
First : Find Natural Light
Natural light is always best for
taking pics but avoid direct sunlight because it will create shadow and high
exposure that will mess the colour of food. Try to take food near window and
get a soft light to take picture. I used to take pic on daylight and rarely
take on night but if u want to take picture at night we also can use light from
the light bulb and having artificial light also good just like put more light
bulb but dont put it too close with the light. If u take food outside make sure
we find perfect place or shade to avoid direct light. ( A secret from me i have
golden hour to take food pics,, its from 8am to 2pm and 4-5pm just before
sunset, It works but not on cloudy day haha)
Why we should turn of flash when
we want to take food pics? Sometime i
used to use the flash to take food pics especially at night but i have learned
that this method resulting harsh shadow also the reflected flash itself. It
makes the pics look flat, washed out and not appetizing. So remeber this point.
Three : Choose The Plate wisely
If u like to take food pics maybe
it will be worth if we spend some money to buy just some serving plate or other
stuffs. You dont need to have many serving plates, just some plate will really
work ( round white or black flat plate, deep bowl, small bowl, spoon and fork
also knife ) Dont worry if you dont have it, you can find lowcost kithen props
in market. ( nore : white colour plate or bowl will be best for almost food)
Four : Playing with Kitchen Props
If u have some colourful napkins,
u can use it to add a glance in ur pics. Take some herbs or anything in ur
fridge such as garlics, onion, cillantro, or other things that bring colours to
your picture. Play with different style. Its my fav part in making food pics to
have fun while mix n match the props and creating background ( To make my food
looks from restaurant sometime i print out resto menu picture from internet and
put it on table close to the food)
Five : Get Best Angle to Take
Picture
Try to shoot many pictures from
different angle because the light quality is different on every angle. Based on
my experience, sometime if u want to get a “POP” colour look dont be afraid to
stand up even in restaurant and be shameless with other people haha its totally
worth it.
Six : Lock Your Focus and Hold
Your Breath
If u want to get close up look on
your food picture lock the focus on your smartphone camera or setting it on
Macro focus. Hold ur breath when u want to shoot and press the shoot button
gently. Make sure u dont shake ur hand when shooting the picture because it
will reduce the quality of your pic. Sometime i place my hand on a water glass
to reduce the shake while im taking picture.
Seven : Use Smartphone Editing
Apps
Using Apps to pop up the colour
and quality also can make your food picture look better or worst. My Fav app to
edit my food photo is VSCOCAM, SNAPSEED and VIBRANTLY. U can try it too but
don't rely on such editing tools because food can look great or disastrous it
depends on our clicks. So try to get fabolous picture by applying these tips.
