For restaurant owners, cell phones are one of the most versatile inventions since, well, sliced bread! From making last minute adjustments to the specials menu before hitting the print button to posting to your social media accounts to let them know about your new extended hours, cell phones have become a staple in our lives.
Because we have them in our hands more than ever before, we tend to use them for areas that maybe we shouldn’t. While cell phone food photography has become increasingly popular and useful in some occasions, there are some areas we shouldn’t use or can’t use our phones for pictures of our food.
Areas you can use cell phone photos:
- Quick spur of the moment social media posts
- Low resolution/image sized photos
- Testimonials from current/past customers
- Using natural light
Areas you shouldn’t or can’t use cell phone photos:
- When flash should be used
- When you plan to print them bigger than 5×7
- When your phone automatically compresses photo files to save room
- When you need to make adjustments to the image or plan to edit them via an editing software
- If you plan to use it for marketing materials like flyers/menus/billboards/commercials etc
- When adding text or removing backgrounds to images When high detail should be seen (sweat on glass etc)
