One of the best ways to improve your food photography compositions is through the power of tethered capture.
Programs such as Lightroom and Capture One Pro offer tools such as grids and guides that can help you take the perfect shot.
Take your composition to the next level with these 10 free overlay designs for tethered capture in both standard 2:3 aspect ratio or 4:5 - perfect for Instagram!
These overlays take things one step further by providing you with templates that you can use while you’re shooting to figure out exactly where to place your subjects and props.
Simple enough to give you an endless variety of combinations, and can also serve as creative prompts when you’re stuck in a rut.
The composition overlays are transparent PNG files that can be used with tethered capture in Lightroom as composition and cropping guides.
If you’re a Capture One user, you can also use them in Live View to compose your images in real time without having to second guess where to place your various compositional elements.
