COMPOSITION ESSENTIALS

Step-up your styling and compose next-level images, (that’ll blow your audience away).

Imagine if:

Nailing composition essentials became second nature and you wondered how you ever struggled in the first place?

You didn’t need to take a million shots to get it right.

You were more organised and went into the photo shoot with a clear vision for what you want (rather than winging it every time). You could achieve the right ‘feel’ for your images and tell a story with your photos.

You could curate a knockout prop collection while cruising your Instagram feed and you could make an image look stellar with only minimal props.

You were able to define your personal style to make your food photography truly recognisable and memorable (and land you that dream gig!). Your portfolio was cohesive and represented your unique style and flair.

With the power of essential composition skills,
YOU CAN:

Envision fresh and different composition options before you even take your camera out of the bag.

Train your eyes to see things that would make an amazing image.

Evoke a mood and sensibility with each delicious shot.

Plan and style shoots with ease and simplicity.

Construct compelling and vivid food imagery every time.

Develop your trademark style that is true to your own personality and taste.

Does this sound familiar?

You love taking photos but you struggle to find fresh ideas to style and compose a shot.

You keep reverting back to the same old, familiar setups (plate in the foreground, glass in the background) because when you try something new it just doesn’t work out.

You hurry through the shoot and forget to plan it out so you rely on the same composition, background and props as usual (Read: the photos end up boring and uninspiring. The food looks unappetizing)

Or you take no less than 60 shots and you still don’t LOVE any of them!

They all just look dull and same-samey. Or the food looks, well, a little brown.

When I started out,

I didn’t know which composition techniques to use to get that perfect snap.

My images never turned out the way I wanted them to – I was just rehashing the same styling and composition as other photographers and never really finding my own groove.

I didn’t know which tools would help me tell the right story and create seriously mouth-watering food photos.

I was tired of creating the same old boring compositions and had no idea how to step up my game.

I wanted to be unique and recognisable. I wanted to create my own vision and signature style.

That’s why I created Composition Essentials.

This course will not only make the photography process fun and seamless – it will seriously up-level your food photography so you can blow your audience away.

Composition Essentials is a system and structure for anyone who feels lost and overwhelmed when trying to build a still life scene from nothing.

I want you to feel at ease with the creative process rather than finding it downright daunting.

I want you to feel excited and inspired to produce original imagery – and not just duplicate the same old ideas for photos and compositions all the time.

Because deep down you know you are worthy of being a skilled and successful creative photographer.

And you know you have the talent to master the art of food photography – if only you could style, plan and compose the shot like the professionals and magazines.

It’s the art of composition.

One of the most basic and most important things you can do to improve your photography is to understand the essentials of photography composition.

Many people skip this step because they would rather hurry up and get snapping – but with food photography, it really does pay to learn how to construct and compose images correctly.

The success and beauty of your photograph hinges on how you organise the subjects within the frame.

Why composition matters

An amazing photograph is never a fluke –
there are certain fundamentals that come together to create that shot.

Really great photographers make clear and conscious decisions about what they put in the frame and what they leave out.

They know how to arrange certain elements and how each one interacts with each other.

It’s about making all the right decisions for the story you’re telling, the season, the food, and even your own mood.

So whether you’re photographing a delectable truffle dish or trying to make brown stews and lasagnes look effortlessly beautiful (so frustrating!) understanding the principles of composition will help you produce better photos, every time.

Composition skills will empower you to know why certain tools work for certain imagery and recipes so you know which ones to select to create amazing images.
