If you’ve ever created a gorgeous dish, propped it all out, taken the photo --- and then sighed with disappointment, chances are your lighting was to blame. In this class, we will start by learning to see and recognize different kinds of light and what they do to an image. Using simple, inexpensive hacks, you will learn when and how to create, diffuse and bounce light. We’ll explore how camera position affects the mood of a shot, and touch on smart ways to ensure your food looks its very best. Whether you shoot with an iPhone or a digital camera, instructor Marge Perry --- who just shot her entire cookbook using only natural light! --- will show you how to improve every photo you take by harnessing the beauty of available light.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

Once you've gotten the basics down, you will try your hand at: sushi rice; maki and futomaki rolls (both thin and thick), inside-out rolls; nigiri and temaki (hand roll)..
