    "THE most important factor to getting a good photo is to be in a brightly lit area," says Danny Lim, founder of True Colours Photography who has been shooting food for 20 years. "Without good lighting, you may end up getting lousy pictures even if you use a DSLR camera."

    There are a few props to bring to the dining table, says Mr Lim, whose clients include The Disgruntled Chef, Quayside Group and The Legian Hotel in Bali.

    A torchlight, a piece of A4-sized white paper, and a piece of white cardboard. It's also a good idea to bring a small tripod to hold your smartphone as well.
