Before I Eat w/ My Mouth, I Eat w/ my Eyes

I don’t think that “Food Photography” is anything new and I’m surprised to find out that people are becoming more engaged than ever before. As human beings i feel like anything we interact with has to be in some way visually pleasing. Just look at the way we dress, decorate our homes, and even assemble our Facebook profile. Food will always be a part of our lives due to the fact that it keeps us alive. I’ve always said that before you eat with your mouth, you eat with your eyes first. If something looks disgusting? Will you eat it? Probably not. So it’s easy to say that when you go to a fine dining restaurant and end up paying an outrageous price for your food, it’s probably the quality product as well as the visuals that come along with it.
