Regarding food photography course

[Sussan Estela Olaya]

Hi Shenhav Yehuda Goren.

Welcome to the Scoolinary community! Thank you for your question.

I love your photography and the effort you’re putting into improving your food photography skills. Here are some tips you can follow to enhance the composition and presentation of your image from a photographic perspective:

Lighting:

The lighting seems uniform, but you could experiment with more directed or diffused light to add depth and highlight the details of the marshmallows. A soft side light (like natural light from a window) can work beautifully.

Composition:

Consider applying the rule of thirds to position the marshmallows at visually interesting points.

Try arranging the elements more symmetrically or in a pattern that guides the viewer’s gaze.

You might include a bit more of the background around the edges or crop in closer to focus on the marshmallows.

Background and Contrast:

The wooden background is simple and works well, but you could experiment with textures or complementary colors (such as pastel tones or softer contrasts) to make the marshmallows stand out.

Editing in Lightroom:

Slightly adjust the brightness and contrast to make the pastel colors more vibrant while keeping their softness.

Use the selective adjustment tool to emphasize the textures or details of the marshmallows.

Reduce noise if needed and slightly enhance sharpness.

Perspective and Angle:

The top-down angle is functional for showcasing the marshmallows, but you could try tilted shots or close-ups to create more dynamism.

I hope this information is helpful! If you have any further questions on this topic, I’ll be happy to assist you.

Best regards.
