In Food Photography, Framing is the
presentation of the pictures. Photographer decides what he wants to show.
Whether he wants horizontal or vertical,
what props should he use to enhance the presentation, and the story he wants to tell
through his pictures.
This is the original picture I took in
vertical frame. This is clicked at 45
degrees with the natural light coming from window behind the camera.
The decision I need to take will be:
What to include and what to crop out,
Where the subject should be in the
reference to the frame
What story I wish to tell
And this is after photo-editing.
The story I wish to tell is that there are
two people enjoying the snack with one plate of sauce to share. The shoe below the table shows that its
male companion. Spoon covering the puri shows that somebody
has shifted the spoon. Some puris missing means that party has
already begun…
The actions I have taken are
I have blurred the other plate
Cropped out the extra tray
And adjusted the brightness
However, I am not happy with the spoon
covering the puri.
