Enhance Your Photography Skills with Hands-On Mobile Training
Food photography is one of the most in-demand skills for anyone in the food, hospitality or content creation space. In this workshop, you’ll develop a practical eye for light, composition and styling — and leave with a portfolio of photographs taken entirely on your mobile phone.
Great food deserves to be photographed well. In this immersive 2-day workshop, you'll learn the full craft of food styling and smartphone photography — from understanding light and camera settings, to building a beautifully styled set-up from scratch.
On Day 1, you'll master the fundamentals of smartphone photography — shot sizes, camera angles, composition, manual camera functions and studio lighting — before building your own styled food set-up and photographing it under different lighting conditions.
On Day 2, you'll take your skills outdoors to Emerald Hill for a natural lighting session, learn professional photo editing on VSCO, and complete both a practical and written assessment.
