Food Photography @ Square 405, Kolkata


Food photography, a special genre in the world of commercial photography is itself of a very unintimidating nature. IIP’ians got  their hand on experience now on food photography in Square 405,Mani Square .Our students attempted with their professional level of photography, they have implicated the intensity of complexity in making a dish look aesthetically  pleasant. Ram-Anuj Bhattacharya, a student of IIP, comes up with a notion, 
Food Photography is a descendent of still life painting, it opens the subject matter to photographer’s art.”Our student being guided by our eminent faculties Mr. Biswajit Chatterjee, Mr. Subhasish Banerjee and Mr.Sudipto Ray have cultivated their technique with a special use of lighting, props, and shot selection. 

 I was surprised how my newly learnt skills had turned into a hawk’s eye perspective, stepping outside my comfort zone” said Anuradha Sen, student
The eye of the artists is not only concerned with HOW to shoot something, but WHAT to shoot. In some cases, the preparation of a meal could be more aesthetically appealing than the dish itself and here is the point where a photographer’s art takes a leap.

 “A food dish looks promising but is flawed in some way for example, it was under exposed, poorly composed, or is  recorded with incorrect white balance but, I have used basic enhancing tools to make it look close to perfect including suitable sharpening and removal of blemishes from uneven textures since, it was about food and  we had to concentrate on the texture” said Anuradha Mitra,Student. In totality it was an another stupendous experience accompanied with loads of knowledge and learning.
