Make the Food the Star: Lightroom Masking for Irresistible Food Photos
Food photography has a specific problem that portraits and landscapes don’t share quite the same way: everything in the frame is often lit similarly, which means the background competes with the subject for the viewer’s eye. The plate looks great, the sprinkles pop, and then your gaze drifts to the slightly too-bright tablecloth behind it and the whole image loses its pull. I’ve run into this constantly, whether I’m editing client work or just shooting for fun.
