Hong Kong Best Dinner - Food Photography for Orange Tree Restaurant

Filed under: General — SDBlogger @ 8:06 am

Today we did some new food images for Pieter at Orange Tree Restaurant. As Pieter has always been very good to us and we value our relationship with him. Today we pulled out all the stops to make sure we created some sumptuous images to do justice to the amazingly tasty dishes.  We borrowed a prime 100mm F2.8 L Canon Lens from our friend Ike. This lens makes my mouth water. The detail. Well the proof is in the puddin… as they say. Now if these shots get your mouth watering head on over to the Orange Tree Restaurant and tell em’ Sean sent ya’…

The perfect dinner starts with a salad…

followed by some BitteBallen, one of those crazy Dutch dishes that is just divine…

and since your having a nice romantic dinner you of course order two starters… the prawns are actually one of the mains, but split between two they make a perfect starter…

and no meal is complete without a juicy steak…

my really favorite dish the Lamb Roulaide shot did not come out so special so we are sticking with the old one for now…

The best part of doing food photography is that once all the shots are done the steak and prawns go back to the kitchen for a proper cooking and then arrive on a plate in front of us with a nice glass of wine… Thanks Pieter…

(Please someone tell me how these look on your monitor, I processed them to 5300 Calvin so they would have a slightly warm cast… is this coming through???)
