DESCRIPTION:
Pablo Castro said Full of useful info and tricks. Half of the book is about the business of food styling, so if you're a photographer like me, you can either skip it or read it just to know more about something new. The second half is exactly what I was looking for: all the tried and tested tricks and 'secret' ingredients stylists use. As someone who loves cooking and knows quite a bit about culinary techniques, and lives in a market where food stylists are too few and way too expensive for my clients, these styling tricks are invaluable.. Food stylist Cookie lady I was disappointed in this book only because I was looking for food styling tips of which there is minimal direction. This is an excellent book for someone who would like to become a food stylist as it gives ample instruction and advice as to how to set up a stylist company, how to break into the business, etc. However, I was looking for a book more directed toward styling the food, rather than the business end of it. I did pick up a few helpful tips, but based on the title, thought there would be much more. This book should be entitled, How to Start A Food Stylist Busi. Business or Pleasure of Food Nash Black THE FOOD STYLIST'S HANDBOOK by Denise Vivaldo was written to provide aid for those wanting to enter the business of creating pictures of good food as a career. It is a lovely volume and I've only marked techniques with little Post Ems instead of highlighting and underlining as I do in other books.This title is a reference book which you dip into on a need to know bases.The foods presented are the ordinary kind that any worker with food will encounter. The business tips and instructions are valuable if one is serious about food styling as a profession.Enjoy, but remember
