Food Photography Foundations

Not at all! Michele designed this class with accessibility for beginners in mind. You can start with basic tools, standard kitchen props, DIY backgrounds, and available daylight. No studio lights are required to produce professional-looking results right from home. The focus is on using what you have to create stunning images rather than relying on expensive gear.

Michele Lee is a commercial food and lifestyle photographer with over a decade of experience, having worked with brands like Nestlé and Procter & Gamble. Her approachable, hands-on teaching style, enriched by personal stories and real-life examples, makes food photography feel achievable. Her journey began at home, which makes her knowledge and techniques relatable and accessible to anyone looking to capture the beauty of everyday food and develop their photography skills.
