FreeAbout this course
Become an expert in food photography: the course to learn how to take fantastic food photos, even for social!
The Food Photography and Food Design course is developed in two days of theoretical and practical classes at Food Genius Academy and half-day training at a leading Milanese restaurant.
The goal is to provide the knowledge necessary to create food photography shots by independently managing lighting, plate composition and photo styling. The course is aimed at photographers, food bloggers, journalists and critics, as well as chefs and wait staff eager to produce quality photographic content for their own communication.
