Food styling for photography: the legal side of things
August 15th, 2010
fettuccine paglia e fieno - styled by Dario Milano
Hey gang, this is a dish I styled some time ago; it’s a very simple recipe and the styling is nothing out of this world, but I just thought it would have helped me to ” illustrate ” a bit better what food styling is all about, before I move on to give you a little piece of legal information.

Food Styling for Photography: techniques and tips
August 8th, 2010
I read a quote somewhere : “ Shooting food is like shooting a beautiful woman: they both take lots of prep time and neither lasts very long on set” . While this is obviously supposed to be a funny joke, it’s certainly true that professional food photography requires professional food styling; and food styling is required
-1- to make the food look good for the camera and
-2- to make it look good for the duration of a photo shoot.

Food Photography on location, some copyright advice
July 30th, 2010
Hey gang, we are talking food photography on location here, actually to be more precise we’re talking about food photography on location for restaurants: how does it work, what do you bring, who is doing what and how much can you get done in one day ?
I’ll try to answer these and a few other questions but, generally speaking, there are no set rules.

Recipes for food photography: Potato and eggplant gnocchi
July 22nd, 2010
Hey gang, here is my recipe for the month of July; it’s an italian classic revisited : gnocchi.
What’s absolutely new here is that the gnocchi dough comprises a percentage of eggplant puree which gives the dish a more complex and smoky flavour; if you love both gnocchi and eggplants, like myself, this is a must try recipe at home.
I’ll give you the recipe first and then we’ll discuss the image.
