Food Photos That Sell: A Hands on Workshop
Food Photos That Sell: A Hands on Workshop:You made something delicious. Now let’s make it look that way in your photos…
Master natural light, styling, and phone photography in a single-day workshop that’s designed for small food businesses.
If you have a cottage food business, micro bakery, restaurant or any kind of food business, your photos can make or break your sales. Gorgeous images stop the scroll, build trust, and make customers want what you’re selling.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn:
How to take amazing food photos with just your cell phone or digital camera
How to use natural light to your advantage
Styling tips and easy props from around your house
How to make your market displays, product shots, and social posts look polished and professional
This is a high-value, action-focused workshop designed to give you tools you can use immediately. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to level up your brand, this class is a game-changer.
What You’ll Walk Away With
• A set of polished photos ready for social media, your website, or marketing
• A clear understanding of how to set up a pro-looking shot anywhere
• Confidence in your ability to take mouthwatering photos — yes, even with your phone
Why Attend?
The best way to learn is by doing — and you’ll have expert photographers guiding you every step of the way.
In this interactive workshop, you’ll:
• Practice shooting your own products with real-time feedback
• Experiment with natural light and simple setups
• Learn composition tricks to make your food the star
• Style with props you already own (or ones we provide!)
• Get personalized tips tailored to your brand and product style
