The Art of Food Photography & Styling

By Nogarlicnoonions @nogarlicnoonion

The 7th of September saw Food Blogger Connect make its first foray abroad, with a photography and styling workshop in the beautiful Beit al Batroun guest house, a quaint and quiet Bed and Breakfast in the foothills above Batroun, a seaside village in Northern Lebanon.

With attendees a mix of both those interested in the art, professional photographers, as well as chefs, stylists and bloggers, it was a melting pot of people from this small yet incredibly diverse Mediterranean country and the region as a whole.

Yet, in spite of this diversity, everyone was linked by their love and passion of making wonderful food look truly beautiful, everyone gelling together as they learnt more about the basics of styling, shooting, lighting, moods, colors, props, angles, compositions, publication needs and more, before putting all they had been taught into practice through group exercises.

However, as has come to be expected with FBC events, this wasn’t just about learning but about people coming together and making lasting friendships through shared interests while sampling the best food and drink each location has to offer.

With wonderful tuna, salmon and beef provided by Meat the Fish, Bethany’s job of creating a sumptuous feast to send everyone home happy and sated was made much easier!

A long day we all enjoyed, shooting inspirational photographs I couldn’t but share with you.
