Mandy Toh Photography: Narrating Stories on Plates

Food photography isn’t merely about taking a delicious food image; rather it is a way to telling a story about the taste, color, texture and the seasons of that particular food item. Mandy Toh is one expert food photographer who knows how to artfully capture every story that a plate of food has to tell.

She doesn’t simply capture it, rather believes in interacting via the food. Never her shots are flat; in fact each culinary image has something to tell. She believes in experimenting and having fun with the food subject. For example, instead of capturing just a bowl full of soup, she may capture a hand picking up a spoon full of soup out of that bowl. Or instead of placing a full sandwich over the plate she may opt for placing a half-eaten one and scattering some scraps of food over the table around. Thus, this kind of food picture creates a sense of activity and tells a story as well as the situation around at that time plus will make the food more desirable.

The motive of the food photography is to make it look just as delicious as it is actually. There are many ways that Mandy Toh implements in her photography that successfully cater the need. For example:

1. She creates a striking and appealing composition of food over the plate.
2. She does a thoughtful styling like doing a nice garnish over the food item or selecting a triangular instead of a simple round plate.
3. Honors the true color and texture of the food. Never does she change or mute the original textures or colors of the food, thus bringing out the best traits and unique flavor through the picture.
4. Last but not the least, ensures a sufficient lighting and if possible the natural sunlight. The natural light gives your subject (food) a glow, a shadow and doesn't even hide the true colors away.

Her every food image tells a story. The quality and precision in every picture enhances the best features of that food, thus making it more desirable and appetizing. Mandy Toh, a Dubai food photographer is known not only for her brilliantly captured mouth-watering food pictures but also for some of the finest portraiture as well as architectural and landscaping photography.
