This class is designed to help take your understanding of successful food styling and photography to the next level. It is open to bloggers, food professionals, entrepreneurs bringing a product to market, and students and chefs interested in writing cookbooks. You'll be introduced to trends in food styling and key considerations in food photography, as Junita and Steve present their portfolio of work. Junita will then style food for Steve to photograph, analyzing and discussing the presentation from different lighting perspectives and with various effects. You will have a chance to style some food yourself, look at the composition with Steve using a digital camera, and receive Junita's feedback and critique.
