Hero shot of selected dishes at Luca Italian Bistro in Albuquerque
Getting creative with food photography in Albuquerque
I got a chance to do a food photography shoot in Albuquerque, New Mexico at Luca Italian Bistro for a new outfit called PopMenu that allowed me to be much more creative in the shots I made, as compared to UberEats which has strict guidelines. For one thing, I could use off camera flash to make shots I cannot just using natural window light. Check out the BTS shot below to see the setup I used to make these photos. Of course no setup can make up for the dishes themselves not looking pretty, and the table surface being ugly, but as you can see both of those were not the case here. The food plating was beautiful and the wooden table top made for a great background. This kind of food photography shoot is really fun for me!
