Course Description
Do you enjoy plating and styling food? Me too! In this class I will show you steps and behind the scenes of how a delicious food photo is created.
This course will teach you how to do Food Styling. You will learn how to intentionally plan and select props. You will also learn how to use layering, color harmony and storytelling in Food Styling.
A food stylist is to food photography, what a fashion stylist is to fashion photography. Food styling helps create stunning food pictures by arranging the scene in a visually appealing way that makes the food look even more desirable! This is extremely helpful today if you want to create a strong online presence through your food photos. So whether you are a food blogger, restaurant owner, content creator, food photographer, a foodie, a home cook or you are someone who just wants to beautifully present your dish, then this class is especially made for you.
Rose has spent many years studying photography and videography. She and her husband gained recognition through wedding highlights videos and food photography for local businesses. She will teach you her 3-step workflow that will level up your food styling skills. She created this workflow after experimenting with hundreds of personal projects and brand photoshoots.
By the end of the course you will be styling a soup, a salad, a main dish and dessert.
Everything you need is in resources :) Let’s start styling and create scroll stopping food photos! See you inside the course!

Why I teach?
I believe that education makes the world a better place and our generation is so blessed with the availability of information specially online. Over the past years I have immersed in studying and researching and that’s when I discovered my calling for teaching. I did not want all the learnings to stop with me, I had a strong burden to share it with the world and somehow make someone’s life easier by collating and turning my mistakes, knowledge and experiences into a well organised online course. There is nothing more beautiful than giving and changing a person’s life through teaching.

It’s a good course to start with. However, the whole course could have been done in 15 minutes maximum. There is too much of fluff that could be avoided. Its good to have it straight to the point.
