It has and still is a pleasure to work with the Newly Weds Foods Corporation, more specifically "New Food Coatings". Last year they tested my abilities when they wanted promotional material for their products. Their products being Food Coatings for meat, vegetables and sauces.
This was my High Key set up. The aim was to have a slightly reflective surface, and a choice of a white background or the oven as a dark background. This set up was mainly for the cooked meals.
This year, they did not want product photographs, but photographs for their serving suggestions. I personally was completely happy to work with them again and had enormous pleasure assisting them with what they needed.
My initial set up for the Low Key shots. This eventually ended up with one soft box to the right, and one high umbrella to the left as fill. This allowed me to create a dramatic look with images for their crumbs and spices.
After taking the required shots, It was amazing for me to be offered a taste of their products for lunch. It was absolutely delicious, and was lucky to have taken home some samples for my own cooking.
Without further ado, here are some of my favourite images that stood out for me in terms of final product or technical difficulty.
