Food Photography with a difference

I was recently commissioned to produce some food photography, with a slight twist. The shoot was to create an image based on a very particular brief.

The image was to form the basis of a logo, and as such had to be very graphic in its structure, so I set about breaking down the problem into elements to ease into the photographic shoot ahead of me.

The food shoot was to photograph an orange with its peel rising up in a spiral above the main body of the fruit, as if it was floating.

I have shown the finished image below and the elements involved in the photographic approach to this particular studio shoot.

As a food photographer and working in the commercial world, this type of shoot is a great one to tackle, as it involves working to a particular brief as part of the overall marketing plan, something which I have a lot of experience with.

Based in Leeds, Yorkshire, UK, I have been fortunate to work with a great deal of food brands, businesses and marketing or advertising agencies across the region and around the UK.

My food portfolio shows a wider variety of work undertaken throughout recent years. Please visit the website here:
