This course is very detail oriented to anyone who wants to start food photography, is very fun to watch and easy to set up the beginning of a new style of photography.

By Mayank on 9/23/2020

I was looking for some more unobvious tips from this course. But overall the presentation and video quality was very pleasant and I realise as an extremely novice beginner it would have helped me.

By Dipanjana Das Basu on 9/17/2020

It is a basic course. It was all with natural light. Would have been great if I could have had an experience of evening settings too. Thanks

By Kushagra Kumar Ghai on 9/15/2020

thank you so much phill & thank you william for this effort i really enjoyed this course and this is really fruitful and i hope my food photography skills will enhance and i'm having a concern regarding the quantity of the content though the quality was fantastic you explained it very well but certainly we can have more content in the course

By Philip Pye on 9/9/2020

Great presentation , lots of very useful information but there is a slight delay in the sound. Annoying but not enough to overshadow the content.

By Stephanie Gabela on 9/6/2020

Yes! I like to take food photos using what I have at hand, but with the advice given I will be able to improve the quality, and take consistently better photos. Also, the comments about the setting are useful, as I think the settings I create are more minimalist. I'm looking forward to taking photos with the 4 different angles, and using the black and white fill . All of the examples were very helpful. Can't wait to take more food photos. Thanks for a great course!

By Shermin Fathima on 8/25/2020

A short and crisp course on food photography. The practice session looks really helpful.
Types of shots (based on angles) was new to me.
Learned a lot of DIY tips. And basic DIY photography equipment.
I was expecting more technical knowledge on 'composition of food'. Also on motion/action in photography.

By Raquel Berlind on 8/10/2020

I like it a lot. He's very good. He explains it very well in a very relax way. I can follow what he's saying, and I like that. I don't need to rewind at all to understand what he was saying.

By Abdul Halim on 7/16/2020

This course was really useful for me. I am not a professional photographer but have a great passion in it. I am running a homestay in Thekkady, Kerala. As part of my business food photography is very important. By this course, I got confident and the idea to take food photos. Thanks my teacher.

By Vivian Lee on 7/10/2020

Because this course is full of information with different food examples demonstrating theories. Just hope the length of course will be longer to let me learn more.

By Sagar Thesiya on 6/10/2020

By Mami Terika on 5/15/2020

This course was exactly what I needed to introduce me to the basics of photography. I've already put these tools to work and have seen a huge difference in my pictures.
