We chat with Noah Zain, a Malaysian food photographer who has shot for LI Restaurant, Provisions and more, to find out how you can bring out the best in your food photos
Taking photos of food is more than just pointing you camera at the plate and clicking. Food photography is in a league of its own. At AllCaps Creative, Noah Zain has been photographing burgers, granola, cakes, and more, and making them look even more tantalising than they already are.
While Noah dabbles in photographing other realms of life like real estate and automobiles, food holds a special place in his heart. "For me, food is such an interesting subject because there’s so many different ways food can be photographed," explains the self-confessed foodie. "Whether it's a lifestyle shot of people enjoying dishes or perfectly plated works of art, the multitude of colours, textures, and stories on a plate is why I love it so much."
Here are his top five tips to getting the perfect shot of your plate.
