In this class, you'll learn composition techniques that will transform your food images from ordinary to extraordinary. :)

Hi! My name is Rose. I am a food and product photographer. Most of my work is dedicated to helping small businesses increase sales and online presence through scroll stopping food and product photos. I also do virtual workshops for online sellers who want to DIY their photoshoots and just last year I had the honor and privilege to become one of Skillshare’s top teachers.

Just like you I started as a beginner overwhelmed and clueless of where to put different elements in my scene. I created this class to demystify composition and share what I’ve learned from years of photographing food for personal projects and clients. :)
