Re: Trade food for photos
Post 9
Katy, I seen some pictures in an Italian restaurant in Budapest a few weeks ago that were quiet interesting.
One setting was for example a bowl of pasta with tomatoe sauce etc. The usual bog standard uninspiring image, however the artist had protrayed it in a standard panormama picture. The pasta hanging from the pasta maker on the left, then in the centre an eye level picture of the steam rising off the finished dish with only the very top of the pasta and a sprig of basil visible, and the the picture on the right was an empty dish with half eaten garlic bread tossed in there. This image i found very inspiring, a story in itself.
A slight possibility this may help you, I know i would also be daunted by taking photos of food, so I would look for another angle, to place the food in a ever so slightly distracting setting but not taking focus away from the item at hand. It may help disguise any issues.
Just a thought....
Best of luck
