MINI-CLASS: Creative Shadows in Food & Product Photography

A styling-led class for creating intentional, dramatic shadows that elevate your images — no fancy gear required.

If your photos are feeling flat, lifeless, or “just fine”... it’s probably time to play with shadows.

In this 45-minute visual mini- class, you'll learn how to create and shape dramatic shadows using simple, everyday objects — like plants, lace, homemade GOBOs and more. This isn’t about camera settings or light theory. It’s about using shadow as a styling tool — to add mood, movement, mystery, and edge to your shots.

✔️ Includes 5 behind-the-scenes demos using both food and product setups


✔️ Works whether you're using natural or artificial light and with a phone or camera


✔️ Learn how to use shadows as composition anchors, storytelling elements, and emotional tone-setters

By the end, you’ll be able to:

• Add richness and depth to flat scenes
  
  

• Create visual tension and mood, on purpose
  
  

• Make your photos stand out — even with minimal styling
  

Originally created for our membership, now available as a standalone class.

Perfect for food photographers, makers, and visual artists who want their photos to feel like art.
