📝 TEAM TRAINING 📝⁠
⁠
Our team recently took a break from their desks to immerse themselves in an eye-opening food photography course, mastering the art of capturing our dishes with a phone 📱.⁠
⁠
Guided by our exceptional coach Love Your Lens we delved deep into angles, lighting, and composition. The insights and techniques we learned were truly amazing! 🍽️📷⁠
⁠
Our talented chefs provided some of our very own delicious food to practice photographing on the day, and we have to say we were very proud of the results 😊.
