Myself and my daughter have come out to
Whitecross street in central London.
It is freezing so we'll find some nice warm food, we'll shoot that.
I've just seen some lovely desserts we'll shoot those.
I'm just going to show you really what to do in a very small space of time out in the big wide world.
Okay, look how bad this little spot is.
You'd never think you could get a nice
food photo out of this area
So I've got my trusty camera bag here
Not only do I have my camera, maybe two lenses
It just has a little selection of bits and bobs
So we've got obviously blunt knives,
little forks, little take away forks
a spare pair of chopsticks
I carry, I tend to carry a piece of wood
This seems quite mad and I change
it all the time, I have a little piece of white wood
might paint a little border myself on it.
Napkin, very handy
I sometimes even carry a coffee cup
Lovely curries.
What we need to do really is make a little story.
Say we imagine ourselves
doing this for the magazine
I mean look, that would be great, you can see the sausage sizzling . Here's the curry set up. Do you think that curry there would shoot well?
We'd love one of your curries
Are you going to share, or would you like one each?
I think if we can order two, that would be fantastic.
If we could have them nice and delicately bit by bit
Can i take your photograph as you do it, would you mind?
Thank you, how much do we owe you?
Thank you very much. Bye!
One thing I find with taking food shots of people, is
never catch them eating
Catch them going to eat,
never catch them eating because,
all you see is
Little bit of curry,
I'm not really a big fan of plastic spoons
So, little spoon
and look, it's a little
street food story really.
If we go back to the plastic spoon
we can even take a little spoon out
maybe Pascal, you're telling a story. This is warm food, brought on the street. Have you shot it? Yeah I've shot it. That's beautiful.
The colors are amazing
