Composition Essentials Information
Everything you need to know to style, compose + photograph your unique food story.
What if you didn’t need to take a million lemon meringue shots to get it right?
JUST IMAGINE…
Nailing food composition became second nature and you wondered how you ever struggled in the first place?
You were more organised and went into the photo shoot with a clear vision for what you want (rather than winging it every time). You could achieve the right ‘feel’ for your images and tell a story with your photos.
You were able to define your personal style to make your food photography truly recognisable and memorable (and land you that dream gig!). Your portfolio was cohesive and represented your unique style and flair.
When shooting cup cakes, you could get into that creative ‘zone’ (which is when the best shots happen!).
I hear your frustrations!
“You love taking photos of waffles but you struggle to find fresh ideas to style and compose the shot.”
“You keep reverting back to the same old, familiar setups (plate in the foreground, glass in the background) because when you try something new it just doesn’t work out”.
Or you take no less than 60 shots and you still don’t LOVE any of them!
Your food photos all just look dull and same-samey. Or the food looks, well, a little brown. (Aka…boring)
Composition is an art form
You’re looking for a creative structure as you feel overwhelmed when trying to build a food scene from nothing.
(No more feeling lost during a food shoot and relying on the same composition, background and props as usual. Which results in boring and uninspiring apple pie shots)

About Author
Hi, I’m Rachel. I’m an Aussie transplant and professional food photographer based in Vancouver, Canada. My work has been featured by OUTLET A and OUTLET B, as well as other publications around the world. I’m also a huge foodie (Asian dishes are my favourite) and traveller.
Years ago when I was travelling, I met my now-husband Matt in Glacier National Park, and he introduced me to photography. While I had always loved food and being creative, things started clicking for me when I sought out to combine my two big loves: food and photography. I bought every food magazine and book I could get my hands on, and over the last decade I worked part time while teaching myself everything I could. This meant lots of trying (and lots of failing) so I could share the very best of what works (and why) here, on Two Loves Studio.
This site is where I get to capture visual stories and create bright, clean, and uplifting imagery that emphasizes the beauty of real food. I love to focus on the honest details and intricacies that connect us emotionally to food. Two Loves Studio is also how I share my love of teaching (my old 9–5) and real-life experience.
I design all my coursework and blog content to go beyond the basics of your last online search: how to build dishes (not just cook them), style still-life scenes from the ground up, and light, compose, and edit food photos like a pro. My hope is that you follow Two Loves Studio to get all the resources you need to realize your own vision, and come back again and again to continue to evolve as an artist and creative.
When I’m not behind the camera or creating new course content, you can find me travelling with Matt, eating all the Asian-fusion I can get my hands on, cooking chicken soup, and sending fist-bump emojis to friends.
