Cuisine Artist Research- Bruce Head

Image found on the AOP 

This image caught my attention because of its vibrant amazing colours. They contrast well together although it looks to have been edited on Photoshop to emphasize these colours even more. Instead of shooting straight on the photographer has captured the cheesecake sideways so you can see more of the texture and height in the desert. 

I like the way Bruce has composed this image. He has thought about where he wants everything and hasn’t just thrown it all on.  The objects in the background are out of focus which is creating depth of field. On the other hand the main subject in the foreground is sharp and clear which draws the viewer’s attention to this point. The light hits the plate nicely giving the food a glow helping it draw in attention.

He has placed the sliced strawberry facing toward to camera so the viewers are able the see the juiciness of the fruit. This shoot has been done on a plain white background to draw more attention to the subject without any distraction in the photograph.
