It looks so delicious, simple and appetizing. Delicious cooked, I like how simple the recipe is. I will try to cook it with great pleasure, following your instructions.
Your videos are timeless. I can never tell if it's been mad 5 days ago or 5 years. You also don't age so good on you for this genes! Thank you for all the tips and tricks as always! Lastly, good luck with everything on the start of your new training coarse!
I'm working on product photography (not food) and this is really helpful. I learned real quick that propping with adhesive tack or with wedges was A THING that I was going to need. I'm using recyclables right now since my studio is at my work and we go through so much cardboard and foam.
To avoid round bottle from rolling all over the set, I pick toothpicks on both sides of the bottle so the bottle label stay in place. Toothpicks are small and can be easily hidden under product. They work like magic.
In case this helps people building their kit on a budget, I was able to find the following items at the dollar store: - Plates & Cups & Bowls of various styles - silverware (and other kitchen utensils/supplies) - Toothpicks - q-tips (tho not the makeup ones) - makeup sponges/wedges - paint brushes - spray bottle - plastic bin to keep kit in And there might be other useful stuff there too depending on what you are doing. Don't be afraid to go cheap on some things, because as long as it looks good on camera that's all that matters.
Great video! Tip: Another great use for Kitchen Bouquet is mixing it with water to make fake beverages like coffee, tea, cola (with club soda), whiskey, etc.
Great ideas & here's another. I keep my props in a cheap tackle box. Saves time and you're not hunting all over the kitchen or wherever for your bag 'a tricks. And thanks for all your videos!
Would you do a video on what all kitchen gear do you in stock? I mean plates, bowls, silverware, cutting boards etc. etc. How much of your own stuff do you keep and how much do you source as a shoot demands?
Thrift stores are a great source of props. You are at the mercy of what is available on any given day, but over time you can build up a collection far below retail prices. I find quality dishes and bowls like Crate and Barrel, West Elm, etc., one or two at a time. Also, vintage kitchen utensils have lots of character after a bit of cleaning.
Great idea regarding the water and glycerin spray. I have used this spray on flowers but, I am not (yet) a food photographer. I love your channel! I did have a friend (when I was stationed with the Navy in Virginia) who was a food photographer but, didn't keep in touch with him after I was transferred. I do remember a couple of tricks that he swore by... 1. He had some fake plastic ice cubes for drink photos 2. He used lard instead of vanilla ice cream 3. He swore that Coca Cola looked better in a coffee cup than does regular black coffee (I don't know about coffee with creamer) 4. Along your ideas of using Kitchen Bouquet to color meats, he would use brown liquid shoe polish to replicate sear marks on steaks 5. He had a selection of Styrofoam pieces cut into all sorts of shapes and sizes that he would use to prop up dishes 6. He always had a wide roll of double stick tape to stabilize things 7. He used a lint roller (the kind you clean dog hair off your clothes with) to clean up the crumbs on table around his food
OMG!! I have just discovered this channel and it is amazing. I am so bad at styling my food shots, usually because I'm in a hurry to actually serve up the dish. Learning so much and hopefully will start actually constructing a set. Glad this video is on pasta as that is what I do... Thanks so much for your amazing insight and all your tips and tricks.
This video is so helpful, thank you so much for sharing these tips! One small thing I was missing, though, was more examples (final images) of where you had used the different items, even if they're not visible. It would just have helped visualize how to use these objects a little more. The bagel shot was so helpful!
Hi Joanne, thanks for the educational video as always! Just wondered what your thoughts were on food waste and minimising it when shooting food? You mentioned not wanting to eat the meatballs 😅 which is totally understandable, yet for myself I try as much as possible to consume the things I shoot (photography is just a hobby for me) - And because I’m a beginner, it makes me very afraid to a) make more than my household could reasonably eat and b) make a mistake/ruin the few attempts I have. Curious to know your thoughts? 😊 thank you!
I am a professional food stylist and this video came up on my feed. So I happened to click. I think you have a great presence on camera and love the quality of your videos. I work on film, editorial and commercial photography. I just have to say that as someone who has done this for over 15 years we do not paint the meatballs. We would cook them to the perfect color. KB is used quite a bit for many different coloring uses. You were correct that glycerin and water are used for droplets. Many times we just use plain water as well. For melting cheese on burgers we never use dry heat. It is moist heat. There is a huge difference.
I am still a newbie, but one thing that I used a lot with my first shots was squares of some fabric that was from some leggings that I had worn out and cut into rags. I kept them damp and used them to wipe up wet spills or splashes as well as the surface I was shooting on. I didn't always have paper towels.
Joanie, food styling has always been my kryptonite! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, for taking the mystery out of styling...OMG I can't wait to try these.
wow, this is the first good styling video I’ve seen as the idea for the career just came to me. My two big loves are beauty & food an I knew there had to be a way to combine them… so cool to see you use the makeup tools ! I’m inspired !
Thank you for your tips, love it so much. Been a chef for 10 years and now planning to move on from my four wall kitchen and stove to a more vibrant scenario haha
Extremely useful video on tools for food styling and I marked a lot of them for Amazon. Thanks again! I usually do a number of food photo projects before Christmas.
I don't usually comment in youtube videos but WOW, I've learned so much from you!! I'm taking a photography class now and you've inspired me to do food photography and so far out of all the UA-cam videos I've watched, yours is the best! Thank you again!! ☺️💜
Just subscribed..This will help with my own food pics..Loads of great tips which hopefully will take me to the next level..I only have an Iphone at the moment but i need to really to invest in a DSLR to help with low light situations and those super cool macro shots etc..
Wow, I really love your channel! I started making photos for my own blog and I do it with my cell phone for I really don't have a lot of money. But now clients like local coffee shops are starting to write me on Instagram asking me to shoot their meals for their own accounts and I'm scared! I'm not a professional food stylist or photographer! Your channel is really helping me to feel confident and make the leap (and practice my English) so thank you!
Thanks for the tips! I recently created a food website but am struggling with taking good pics of my food! I only have one good pic that I like so far and needed to know how I could get those picture perfect food shots. 🙌🏽
Great tips! I love cooking, but I am still learning more about photography/food styling for my UA-cam channel and social media accounts. You were very helpful to me and I have learned so much just from your video! I loved the make up sponge idea to give your food a little height! I would have never thought of that. I don't have those make up sponges, but will will get some now. I appreciate your honesty! Thanks again and have a wonderful day!
Wow! This was so interesting! I had no idea the amount of artistic work that goes into filming food!! Thanks for sharing. I just learned something new today :)
Hey. Thanks so much for the excellent tips - they were all new to me ( I've heard of spraying oil or soapy water on food to make it shine but not gkycerine) When I plate food in a restaurant environment I use a clean "chux" cloth and vinegar water. You make great tutorials. Keep up the great work. Thanks again!
Hi, I know this is an older video, but I'm starting to get into food styling a bit. When you said you wouldn't eat the meatballs with the kitchen bouquet on them- does it taste bad? I'm just looking to make the food pictures I take look better for fun, but still want to be able to eat my food. Same question for the glycerin!!
im so happy I found your channel! love your videos. I just painted my own backgrounds tonight. this video will help with my styling tomorrow. thanks for sharing!!
Just discovered your channel. You're a GREAT communicator, your videos are a pleasure to watch, apart from containing tons of real tips. Subscribed! :-)
Pro tip: buy twice the food you need so when you eat it and realize you forgot to take a picture, you have something left to shoot ;) jk ofc ;) great video
I've got to get some t-pins and a feathered makeup brush. Your candor is genuine and thank you again for another great video. Oh and love the "game/food styling face.
Great tips! I'm just not a fan of styling the food to the point where it becomes inedible - that's a lot of food wastage. But will definitely use the makeup tools and heat gun!
Hi Joannie its Allan from Scotland again . Ok dokay then ..I tried out a 95cm octo with a strobe and for some food it was ok then shot my watch and oh dear to strong on the highlights which is not to my taste at all ( can happen with for example a salad dressing or wet/oil etc) , so then a slipped in a diffusion = total succes, the most gorgeous window light but even better on demand and re creatable any time plus I used your tip and a white reflector but the diffusion panel was quite large and past 90 degrees off cam , a brill foundation point so next up will be a snoot . My strobe was only 400w/s and was struggling at ISO 100 1/200 and f22 so I came back to f10 with a 100mm macro lens so now I know to just up the ISO a bit if I need more DOF and use a narrower aperture but on the one hand yes dof use is subjective but at least should be used with intent by the artist . I also use black plexi glass for the reflection and got away with wot I had but tbh a sheet of black velvet from a boom arm behind would have been the answer for this kind of work to stop unwanted reflections . Your vids have been so inspiring and just what i was looking for as the real world time is money and we need to get as near to the mark as poss with ease and and either a finished look or take it further but either way a quick repeatable way to a superb base point.
Hi Allan! So glad that the videos are inspiring you and sounds like you have a wide breadth of experience in photography! Glad to have you here on the channel and looking forward to continuing the fun in future videos. Cheers to you!
One can also cut down the output of a strobe or LED by placing some white paper towels in front of the light: about -1 f-stop per layer. Back when we were shooting news photos with 4x5" Press cameras, we used our white handkerchief for the same goal.
Seriously started to freak my Mrs out after watching this when I started raiding her make up drawer and asking her about the types of sponges and eye lash tweezers she uses 😂😂
that sauce is actually a very common ingredients in Caribbean food. We use browning in stews and it is what makes our holiday rum cake black. In fact we call it Black Cake. If you lived here in the East with large Caribbean populations there are several brands that make Caribbean products that produce browning. Blue Mountain is one of the most popular here. Just so you know if others are watching you because I have never seen the brand you mentioned here.
Here is an easily portable $12 hot air gun: www.banggood.com/110V-300W-DIY-Electric-Heat-Shrink-Gun-Power-Tool-Hot-Air-Temperature-Gun-with-Supporting-Seat-p-1107127.html?rmmds=search&cur_warehouse=CN
Absolutely brilliant. I'm wanting to create better images for a restaurant client I have and was looking for some good tips I could utilize for the photoshoot. I'm still learning Lao & Thai cuisines, but these tips will work for me. The images will be on their website I created, the mobile app I will develop as well as throughout their social media presences. Lots of work, but want to do a great job for them. Thank you for sharing these tips. I've subscribed and will be watching previous and the new videos you upload. :)
You could create a b-roll on that meatball painting. Just paint a meatball with the video camera on a tight shot of your hands and the meatball. Add the shot over you painting the meatball. viewers are use to seeing two or more camera angles in videos. a second angle adds a great deal of interest to videos, but the second angle doesn't have to happen during your first take of the video. I love your channel. You are an amazing talent on camera. Yes, You did a b-roll shot on the extra video!
As a retoucher, I want to thank you for all the cleanup tips for the photographers/stylists 😜
It looks so delicious, simple and appetizing. Delicious cooked, I like how simple the recipe is. I will try to cook it with great pleasure, following your instructions.
Your videos are timeless. I can never tell if it's been mad 5 days ago or 5 years. You also don't age so good on you for this genes! Thank you for all the tips and tricks as always! Lastly, good luck with everything on the start of your new training coarse!
Natural. Fluid. Poised. Knowledgeable. Hugely entertaining. You are a perfect human being. Thank you!
I'm working on product photography (not food) and this is really helpful. I learned real quick that propping with adhesive tack or with wedges was A THING that I was going to need. I'm using recyclables right now since my studio is at my work and we go through so much cardboard and foam.
Actually, the products I'm shooting are lighters like the torch you used.
To avoid round bottle from rolling all over the set, I pick toothpicks on both sides of the bottle so the bottle label stay in place. Toothpicks are small and can be easily hidden under product. They work like magic.
In case this helps people building their kit on a budget, I was able to find the following items at the dollar store:
- Plates & Cups & Bowls of various styles
- silverware (and other kitchen utensils/supplies)
- Toothpicks
- q-tips (tho not the makeup ones)
- makeup sponges/wedges
- paint brushes
- spray bottle
- plastic bin to keep kit in
And there might be other useful stuff there too depending on what you are doing. Don't be afraid to go cheap on some things, because as long as it looks good on camera that's all that matters.
Great video!
Tip: Another great use for Kitchen Bouquet is mixing it with water to make fake beverages like coffee, tea, cola (with club soda), whiskey, etc.
Soy sauce is great for this as well!
Great ideas & here's another. I keep my props in a cheap tackle box. Saves time and you're not hunting all over the kitchen or wherever for your bag 'a tricks. And thanks for all your videos!

I find quality dishes and bowls like Crate and Barrel, West Elm, etc., one or two at a time. Also, vintage kitchen utensils have lots of character after a bit of cleaning.
My food photos about to be next level after watching this. Thanks for sharing.
Great idea regarding the water and glycerin spray. I have used this spray on flowers but, I am not (yet) a food photographer. I love your channel!
I did have a friend (when I was stationed with the Navy in Virginia) who was a food photographer but, didn't keep in touch with him after I was transferred. I do remember a couple of tricks that he swore by...

2. He used lard instead of vanilla ice cream

So fun! Such great added tips! Cheers!!
Cool
@@TheBiteShot can you eat glicerin? I mean after you spray it on your food can you it the food after you shoot it or you have to discard it?
I’m from Brazil and there are no good youtube channels like yours. You are fantastic! Grateful for your tips and help!
I need to say this, i'm watching because i need ice cream tips for photography, and then I got hooked on your personality and the pro tips
I am so jealous...that pepper grinder is to die for! Awesome tips. Thanks, Joanie!
I know, right? I tried to get him to make a bunch of them for me to sell on Etsy, but he decided he wants to enjoy retirement :)
I'm not sure if he lied or ifsomeone decided to make that same pepper mill but there you go
Amazon.con / pepper mill grinder
I have also used paper towel as a reflector and also as a diffuser for my on camera flash and LED lights.
my daughter uses a white plastic bag (like from the supermarket), she blows it up, ties the end off n uses that to help with light :)
I am starting up as a food photographer & I must say your videos are of great help. Keep up the great work.
I❤️biteshot! even if I’m not into food photography for now but I always watch your videos because I get to learn a lot of things for free.
OMG!! I have just discovered this channel and it is amazing. I am so bad at styling my food shots, usually because I'm in a hurry to actually serve up the dish.

So many nuggets of food styling wisdom, thank you! How lucky are you to have such a beautiful pepper grinder.
Thank you so much for your sense of humor and quality tips. I'm loving watching every single video you have.

Thanks for your great videos. If you want to see my work it is here. Www.laurabednarski.com
Would a steamer be a good source of moist heat?
Terry Thomas yes that is what we use. Especially processed cheeses.
Wow so many helpful tips, and without rambling clear and well explained. Thank you
I love the audio, food styling and everything. Thank you for this video..

Hey. Thanks so much for the excellent tips - they were all new to me ( I've heard of spraying oil or soapy water on food to make it shine but not gkycerine) When I plate food in a restaurant environment I use a clean "chux" cloth and vinegar water. You make great tutorials. Keep up the great work. Thanks again!

I'm just looking to make the food pictures I take look better for fun, but still want to be able to eat my food. Same question for the glycerin!!
I've wondered the same. I can't imagine wasting food. Growing up poor you know not to waste a single crumb. That mindset carries through life I guess.

Halfway through the video I was thinking "Ah the list is over, there possibly can't be more tools!"
But she kept going... 😱 I'm beyond amazed 😲
Superb video, lots of great tips. Thanks for sharing 😎😎😎
Excellent tricks! Thank you!!
Hi Joannie its Allan from Scotland again . Ok dokay then ..I tried out a 95cm octo with a strobe and for some food it was ok then shot my watch and oh dear to strong on the highlights which is not to my taste at all ( can happen with for example a salad dressing or wet/oil etc) , so then a slipped in a diffusion = total succes, the most gorgeous window light but even better on demand and re creatable any time plus I used your tip and a white reflector but the diffusion panel was quite large and past 90 degrees off cam , a brill foundation point so next up will be a snoot .

Ha ha ha!!! That is fantastic!!!
Many such items can be found at discount stores such as Dollar Tree here in the USA.
Next time you should ask about her underwear, THAT will really get her freaking out lol
LOL! LOVE IT.
I loved your hair color... Looks fab!
You're a great artist. I love your pepper grinder, wish I have one.

So cool to know that! I always wondered! Cheers
I need to figure out if I can get that stuff here in Europe!
Loving these tips and your vibe! Can't wait to check out the rest of your channel :)
Welcome to the party!
Awesome! Very helpful for my cooking channel 🥰🙏🏼👍
thank you so much for sharing . I am learning a lot.

Absolutely brilliant. I'm wanting to create better images for a restaurant client I have and was looking for some good tips I could utilize for the photoshoot. I'm still learning Lao & Thai cuisines, but these tips will work for me. The images will be on their website I created, the mobile app I will develop as well as throughout their social media presences. Lots of work, but want to do a great job for them. Thank you for sharing these tips. I've subscribed and will be watching previous and the new videos you upload. :)
You could create a b-roll on that meatball painting. Just paint a meatball with the video camera on a tight shot of your hands and the meatball. Add the shot over you painting the meatball. viewers are use to seeing two or more camera angles in videos. a second angle adds a great deal of interest to videos, but the second angle doesn't have to happen during your first take of the video. I love your channel. You are an amazing talent on camera. Yes, You did a b-roll shot on the extra video!
