Have you ever seen a food photo and said, “Ooh! I need to make that recipe.” or maybe…
“Ooh! I need to eat at that restaurant.” or even…
“Ooh, I have got to buy that cupcake.”
When does a photo have that effect on you?
The answer?
When you can visualize yourself in it - whether that’s visualizing a recipe that makes you drool, a photo that reminds you of home, or something else that helps you connect to it.
Now, let’s reverse roles.
As food photographers, how do we do that? How do we simulate that sort of impact with our photos so that our audience can connect to it?
The answer?
With our compositions.
As photographers, we often struggle with compositions, agree?
That’s why, this week I dive deep into 5 powerful
tips on how to create natural compositions that don’t look staged.
The more natural a photo is, the more relatable it is and the higher the chances of it being able to relate to your audience.
Every style of photo has its place and purpose. When we want to create a photo that evokes emotions, resonates, or brings a certain sense of nostalgia, there are certain compositional techniques that can take it from looking stiff to easy.
In this episode, I discuss techniques already part of our creative process.
Often, all we need is to harness them in a way that allows them to create the biggest impact.
When your audience feels connected to your photo…
They try your recipe instead of another food blogger’s.
They go to your restaurant instead of the other.
They hire you to photograph for them instead of another photographer.
They buy your food products instead of other brands.
They sign up for your cooking classes and not someone else’s.
They “like” your photo and enrich your community on social media
And the list goes on…
The power of a photo that looks natural is immense. Whether you’re a photographer, food blogger, or take photos for your own joy, you want to connect to your audience.
Whether it is to sell a product, get hired, or share your art, a photo that allows your audience to feel connected to it… always hits a home run.
