How do the world's top chefs photograph their food for recipe books?
Photographer David Loftus and Jamie Oliver have worked together for the past 15 years preparing and shooting food for countless cookbooks and websites.



In this master class, David (shooting on the Nikon D4) and Jamie (shooting on the Nikon D3200) explain how they capture rich, vibrant imagery of the food that Jamie cooks, and what can we learn from them for our own food photography.

I've only done a food shoot once, lasted two days (1430 shots) and was hard work. Couldn't eat a steak for months afterwards. I did learn to use oil, incense sticks, microwaved wet cotton balls, We didn't have a food styist so had to do it myself. I have a collection of artist brushes, foam, long twezzers etc. I'll be doing another for a web site this winter, may even encorporperate some video in this one for a new adventure, sizzling steaks on the grill. It was humbling to do, takes a lot more than good camera mechanical skills. One lesson learned was have a lint roller or have many black back drops for the crumbs.
