Francesc Guillamet is one of the best gastronomic photographers in the world. For his camera have passed the creations of great chefs such as Ferran Adrià, Sergi Arola, the brothers Roca (Jordi, Joan and Josep), Carme Ruscalleda or Paco Torreblanca.

In this course you will learn to portray food in an aesthetic and harmonious way, highlighting the nobility of the product along with the chef's preparation. As an example, Francesc will show you the challenges he has had to overcome when it comes to portraying vegetables in miniature, very difficult elements given the delicacy of the raw material, the size, the absence of color and textures.

You will begin by getting to know Francesc Guillamet's work better, his photographic references and his beginnings in the profession together with Ferran Adrià and the El Bulli team.

Next, Francesc will talk about the cameras, objectives and lights he works with. It will guide you through different lighting solutions both artificial and natural light and will show you the disposition of the set you usually use in each session.

Later you will know different ways of presenting the product (either raw or cooked), different ways of treating the raw material and how to photograph a freshly made dish in the kitchen itself.

Then you will review the process of viewing and selecting the final images. In addition, the retoucher Cati Palau will explain some professional techniques of Photoshop with which you will be able to highlight small details, work the light and give harmony to the whole.

The final result will be a collection of snapshots that will make your mouth water to the most exquisite palates.
