Food Photography On Location

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

THE CHALLENGE TO WORK ON LOCATION

For me, who often photographs food on site at the customer's, the need for lighting / equipment varies greatly between assignments. The factors that come into play are mainly space, time and budget. Many of my customers are restaurants that need attractive food images to present on the web and in their menus. Photography usually takes place on site in the restaurant, which means that the conditions are never the same. Customers have different budgets, the time frame for photography varies greatly and the premises differ in both space and light.

All these factors I have to take into account when I plan what light and what equipment the mission requires.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

There is not always enough time or budget to set up a studio setup with 3-4 flashes.

FREQUENT COMPROMISES

It is rare that the room is optimal for photography and the time frame is often a maximum of 3 hours as the assignment is usually carried out between lunch and evening service. This forces constant compromises, which means that I, among other things. try to use as little equipment as possible for the lighting while the end result should match the customer's wishes and needs. Something I have learned over the years is just this.
To produce a complete product adapted to the customer's wishes and not my own "standard".

SETUP – LIGHTING

Head Light – Deep Umbrella

So how do I do the tasks where space, time and maybe even budget are limited? The solution is one, a maximum of two flashes, and a reflective screen. For photography where space allows, I can use Elinchrom Litemotiv Indirect 145x145cm which is one of my favorites when I photograph food as it can simulate a nice window light.

However, the softbox is quite large and requires a real stand, which does not fit into a small portable setup. So for headlights, I often choose Elinchrom Deep Umbrella 125cm White with diffuser cloth. It is super easy to take with you, mounted in a few seconds and the light is very easy to work with. Would also like to say that it is Elinchrom's most affordable light shaper!

I have previously been very skeptical about working with umbrellas because it has been difficult to find models that are suitable for professional use. The construction is too small, which caused the umbrella to break after a few jobs. However, Elinchrom's series of umbrellas Deep Umbrella is of a completely different class! I have now dragged around my umbrellas on many on location assignments and they still feel more or less like new. Yes, except for the smell of food then😊

If I have to recommend an alternative to Deep Umbrella, the Rotalux 100 × 100 cm softbox is very nice to use for food photography and also easy to take with you.

Fill Light – Reflector

As a backlight, a reflective screen is the simplest and most practical solution in some cases. In the past, I have often used Manfrotto Skylite 1 × 1 meter because I appreciate the stability its aluminum frame provides. The downside is that it is quite bulky and needs a stable stand, which of course both affects my mobility and requires space.

Manfrotto has many variants of reflective screens and perhaps the best known are the so-called the pop-up models. They have never really suited my way of working, but a while ago Latolite launched a new ingenious product, the reflex / diffuser screen HaloCompact! Folded, the HaloCompact is super compact and the smart construction can be set up quickly. Its stable aluminum frame with 1/4 ”thread in the handle makes it possible to place HaloCompact on a light stand with a small tilt swivel.
This combination is extremely easy to work with and the reflective screen can be easily and precisely placed in the desired position.

Kicker – Accent Light

If I have the opportunity to use two flashes, my second light source will be a kicker that gives the image another dimension by creating glitter and highlights. For this I use a flash with a standard 18 cm reflector with raster.

CHOISE OF FLASHES

Depending on the mission, location and ambient light, I switch between using Elinchrom ELB 500 and ELB 1200. To gain control over reflections and the subject's texture, I always use a polarizing filter on the lens during food photography. This filter attenuates the light transmission with about 1.75 aperture steps, which means I need flashes with high brightness.

For food images where both the environment and the main object must have a shallow depth of field, the ELB 500 works excellently. The benefits of the ELB 500 are many. The blix is ​​lightweight and can be disassembled into several parts, which facilitates transport. During photography, I estimate that the lamp head weighs only 350 grams, which means that a simpler tripod can be used or that the flash can be placed on a boom tripod.

Should the dish be exposed to e.g. used for a menu, the plate must have sharpness from front edge to back edge. On these occasions, I use either a tilt-shift lens or focus stacking as well as a small aperture for the best possible depth of field. This camera set requires a lot of light, which means that the choice then falls on the ELB 1200.

SOME SAMPLES

DEEP UMBRELLA AND REFLECTOR

For this photography, the space was very small, which meant that I placed the dish and background directly on the floor. ELB 500 with Deep Umbrella White 125 cm and diffuser are headlights and the silver surface on HaloCompact works as a filling light.

TWO FLASHES AND A REFLECTOR

This photography was done outdoors, which meant that I needed extra brightness from the flash to compete with the sunlight, which the ELB 1200 with double lamp heads can handle gallantly. Rotalux 100 × 100 cm is used as a headlight, HaloCompact as a filling light and on the other lamp head is an 18 cm reflector with a grid which works as a kicker.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

Tilt-Shift lens, small aperture and strong light source provide good sharpness from the front edge of the image to the rear edge.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

TWO FLASH HEAD AND REFLECTOR

Another setup for small space. ELB 500 with double lamp heads. One with Deep Umbrella 125 cm and diffuser cloth (headlight) and the other with 18 cm reflector and raster (kicker). This time I used a white cardboard disc as a small filling light, black Tether Tools clamp holds the cardboard disc in place.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

Shallow depth of field highlights the main subject.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

ELB 500 TTL WITH TWO FLASH HEADS

ELB 500 with two lamp heads is perfect for this tight set-up. Deep Umbrella 125 cm with diffuser cloth does the job as headlight and 18 cm reflector with breaks is kicker. Since the dishes were photographed straight from the top, Deep Umbrella gave nice light all over the plate and no filling light was required.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

Photographed straight from the top for images that fit in a menu.

Fotograf Paul Lindqvist

Hope you got some inspiration and ideas on how to set up a relatively simple and small setup on location. I can highly recommend Elinchrom Deep Umbrella and Lastolite HaloCompact. Two products that are very affordable, easy to work with and easy to take on all assignments!

Elinchrom Litemotiv 120cm
EL-28004

Elinchrom Litemotiv 120 cm. From monster Beauty Dish to monster Softbox! Introducing the Elinchrom Litemotiv range, the parabolic extension to Elinchrom's Rotalux Deep Octa 70 and 100cm softboxes. These 16 sided softboxes produce close to perfect circular catch-lights and with a heavy duty bracket (sold separately) for  precise and easy positioning of the light.

Improved Durability

The new material used in the Litemotiv softboxes is more durable than the Elinchrom Rotalux range. Improved heat and tear resistance ensures the longevity of your Litemotiv. Furthermore, a removable central ring of soft box material (the area closest to your flash head) allows for heat dissipation during extensive use of hot modelling lights, and can be replaced at a fraction of the softbox price should it get damaged.

More Efficient

The improved design of the Litemotiv fabric is more efficient up to 1/3 stop. Get the most out of your flash heads with Litemotiv. Each soft box comes equipped with a velcro attachable inner diffuser and front diffuser. Use both together to create a beautiful soft light source, or remove the front diffuser (or both) to get a beauty dish style lighting effect. We recommend adding an Elinchrom Deflector set to your Litemotiv, to open up a variety of creative option.

Litemotivs come in two sizes, 120cm Deep and 190cm Deep

  • Exclusive fabric for exceptional light quality
  • Sixteen sided softboxes, creating close to perfect catchlights
  • Anodised rod colour coding for faster assembly
  • Strong and stable bracket supports all Elinchrom units
  • Additional brackets are available for Broncolor, Profoto and Bowens

  • Available in 120 and 190 cm including carrying bag

The 16 anodised rods are heat-resistant, enabling work with high temperature light sources. They are made out of flexible aluminium so that they follow the parabolic shape of the Litemotiv. The colour coding of the bracket and rods enable trouble free assembly. These are studio softboxes but their construction make them simple to setup but also to disassemble.

Elinchrom Litemotiv Para - Parabolic shape

The double diffusion panels have been specialy designed to produce very soft light. The innner diffuser also incorporates a central circular panel to avoid any hotspot, thus offering the most homogenous light possible. It is possible to remove both diffusers to obtain a very crispy and contrasty light, similar to beauty dish... but in much bigger!

Elinchrom Litemotiv Para 120 -  Diffusers

The fabric of the Litemotiv softboxes is unique. It offers 30% more light output than our standard Rotalux fabric, also used for Portalite, while being just as lightweight. It also offers the same distinctive Elinchrom look than our other softboxes but this fabric is heat-resistant, meaning that 650W hot lamps can be used with Litemotiv.

Manfrotto HaloCompact 82cm Silver/White
deal.png
LA-LR3300

Manfrotto HaloCompact Silver and White 82 cm. This reflector has a patent pending design concept that makes the everyday reflector and diffuser panel even more portable than ever! Unlike many traditional reflector/diffuser panels that incorporate a steel rim pop up design, the 82cm HaloCompact is constructed using Manfrotto innovative RapidExoframe™ technology. The collapsible lightweight aluminium frame quickly slots together and the reflector or diffuser fabric cover simply clips onto the frame. The cleverly designed RapidExoframe construction allows the frame to breakdown into small multiple sections and along with the folded fabric packs into a carry case measuring only 6.5 x 27 x 6.5cm weighing only 390g (HaloCompactReflector and case).

  • Packs down smaller than a traditional reflector/diffuser
  • Lighter in weight than a traditional reflector/diffuser
  • Ergonomic hand grip for one handed operation
  • Rigid frame eliminates flexing caused by wind
  • 1/4” thread mount (plus a 1/4” to 1/4” adaptor) for various mounting options
  • Easy to set up
  • Comes with bag for transportation

The ultra-compact folded dimensions make the HaloCompact the perfect solution for photographers on the move or with very limited carrying space. It now means a reflector/diffuser can always be carried in the camera bag rather than having to consider whether to take an extra bag or not.

A handy carabinerstyle clip also allows the user to clip the HaloCompact to their belt if out on location with their camera only and no camera bag. The HaloCompact also features an ergonomically designed handle so it can easily be held and accurately positioned with one hand. The handle also incorporates a very useful ¼” thread (plus a ¼” to ¼” adaptor), enabling it to be easily attached to various different support systems, to offer secure positioning further away from camera position.The HaloCompact is available in two versions –the first is a double-sided reflector, with silver one side and white the other. The second version is as a 2 stop diffuser. The two covers are also available separately.

Tether Tools Aero Tab S2 | Universal Tablet Mount | Small
ATS2

AeroTab Universal Tablet Mounting System S2is the standard version in the AeroTab Series. The streamlined design ensures a secure fit and clean, sleek appearance.  Engineered with a secure corner to corner diagonal brace, the AeroTab keeps a tablet's screen, as well as all buttons, cameras, speakers and ports open and accessible.

Secure, flexible and easy to use

AeroTab S2 is designed for a tight fit on the corners of smaller tablets.  The tablet can be rotated and mounted in portrait or landscape orientation.

Once the tablet is placed in the diagonal extension, slide the non-slip, scratch proof padded corners onto the tablet for a tight fit. Using the circular bracket on the back, tighten the mount so the diagonal slide is locked in place and the tablet is securely resting in the AeroTab.  Then simply attach the AeroTab bracket to the tripod, stand or arm of choice and lock down for a secure mount.

Shoot, play, view, read, edit.  Do whatever it is you love to do with your tablet.

Will it fit my tablet? 

To determine the right version AeroTab for your tablet, measure the tablet’s diagonal length from corner to corner and measure its thickness to confirm compatibility. If keeping your tablet in a case when mounting, be sure to measure it with the case on.

AeroTab S Series sliding design holds tablets ranging in physical corner-to-corner diagonal length from 8.75”(22.2cm) to 14”(35.5cm) and accommodates tablets up to.50”(1.25cm) in thickness.

The collapsing design makes travel compact, easy and portable. Whether the AeroTab is left on the tablet or packed in a bag, it takes up little space in a travel case or bag.

Already have a protective case on your tablet?  

The AeroTab works with most existing protective enclosures as long as the dimensions fall within the above ranges.
