With the advent of Instagram and the social media revolution, photographing food has never been so popular and easy as it is today. However taking quality images can be challenging. This workshop will walk you through the basics of what it takes to create stunning images of food and give you the technical and artistic skills you need to create some delicious photos.

Part 1 – Basics and gear:

During the first part we look at the basic technical aspects of photography that you should understand and master to start taking better images. These are universal regardless of the camera you will be using, whether it is a professional DSLR or a mobile phone. We will then look at what gear works best for photographing food.

Part 2 – Composition and storytelling:

In this section we learn to use rules of composition to improve the look of a scene, as well as to how to tell a story through a picture and the food. You will also learn the basics of styling food and ingredients to make your pictures more attractive.

Part 3 – Lighting:

Next you will learn the importance of light in food photography: it can be the deal-breaker. From the difference between natural and artificial light, to how to use and position different light sources to photograph food at its best, we have it covered.

Part 4 – Post-production:

Finally we will spend some time further practicing what we learnt so far, and then learn how to enhance the look of an image in post-production making a few basic adjustments to the photos you have taken.

10+ years experience in photography


Willem Deenik is an educator at heart. More than 20 years ago Willem Deenik came to Asia driven by the spirit of adventure and a yearning to experience the different cultures in the region. After visiting most countries in Southeast Asia he finally settled in Thailand where he embedded himself in the rural life of upcountry Isan, learned the Thai language and started a family.

Three years later he moved to Bangkok and worked for several companies before starting a series of his own businesses in industries ranging from real estate to online marketing. Finally, and after more than 15 years, Willem established his current company, Fame Lights Co., Ltd., to focus on his passion for photography.

Based on many years of experience working with Thai people and a strong affection for teaching, he also started conducting cultural workshops to share his insights and help other foreigners who were interested in establishing a foothold in Thailand.

To combine both photography and teaching, Willem created a new platform called Fame Lights Academy where he now runs workshops related to creativity, culture, and communication skills.
