Determine the location of the filming: If there is no artificial lighting, take pictures in front of the window, in order to get the largest amount of light, because lighting is one of the most important elements of photography, and knowing how to employ and distribute it gives the photographer images with natural and beautiful colors.

Composition and design: The composition of the picture should be simple, away from entering many random elements and surrounding them with the main element, for example, if I picture a cup of coffee, I can put a teaspoon, a piece of cake, a book…., meaning elements related to the subject of the picture.

Color coordination: Use colors that are consistent with each other, and do not use many colors, be content with three or four colors maximum, and if you are facing a problem in choosing and coordinating colors, you can use the color wheel.

Angle identification: The choice of the appropriate angle is determined by the type of food to be photographed, for example, if we want to photograph pizza, it is better to take the picture from the top and this angle is called the angle 90°, and the purpose of choosing this angle without others is to show the ingredients of pizza, cheese, pepper, olives ….
