Spicy Margarita
Entry No. 10
When creating captivating beverage & food photos, the right backdrop & the right amount of details make the image.
Whenever I am photographing food or drink photos, I think about the overall color scheme that I want to achieve.
As the creative & photographer, I gather my props, props found in nature, the kitchen, bathroom, & my styling kit...all are fair game!
Here, in this summer cocktail photo series, you can see I used an array of green & yellow props. I think texture makes a photo pop! The knit avocado & green pom-pom flowers add an element of texture to the summer cocktail images.
Adding freshly sliced citrus also adds a 'fresh' look to photos. When you work with me, clients can always expect photo elements such as these.
