Reviews
"Joe is a gifted photographer, a world-class communicator, and I’ve yet to meet anyone better at teaching food photography than Joe, and this book raises the bar for any book like it. There are insights, tricks, and techniques that you only learn from a lifetime behind the lens, and Joe shares them so openly with us. Every page brings another insight, another tip, and another reason to smile. Food photography is an art. A craft. And having the opportunity to learn it from one of the very best is truly a treat, and what Joe has done with this book is remarkable. You’ll be able to take his techniques and start taking the types of food photography shots you’ve always dreamed of. If I had to come up with one word to describe this book, no doubt it would be ‘delicious!’ Highly recommended for anyone who wants to take their food photography to the next level."
