Props

Props are very important in photography, especially when your shooting a series of food images, as an employer is looking for consistent images using similar props of similar colour's so that they all run smoothly on from each other, this also means that the lighting has to be consistent to.

These were the first set of props I have bought, they are all very pastel colors with nice warm wood tones. I have gone for pastel green and blue, to go with the fashion of country style, home cooking. Its important to get the right props to your style of food photography, if you want clean modern images you need high shine, more monotone items  were as myself, prefers the homely look to an image, with warm tones and nothing to harsh to look at, with bold blocks of colour.
