Winning photos
Biscuits and cheese, served floating on a bed of flowers. This was shot for a restaurant in Sandton, Johannesburg, South Africa. Shot with flash I really tried to copy the natural light that would appear in the restaurant during its lunch service. We had to shoot this in studio because of some restrictions.

Tuna Tartar. Shot for a restaurant in Sandton with flash.
I love the colour pallet of this shot, soft pinks and golds. the trickiest part of this shot was getting the hard light to look natural. The dish bursts with flavours of ginger.
Springbok Salad, Springbok is a type of Antelope indigenous to South Africa, extremely lean but full of falvour. Shot with flash

I really love the soft light, however the cake was beautifully decorated.
