Background
"Consider purchasing a sheet, board, or other large, flat item that you can easily manipulate to control how your image looks. I use 4 main backgrounds with my photos, 3 wooden crates with different stains (dark brown, white, greyish-green), and cutting board. Before I had them, though, I used my kitchen table and manipulated how it looked by throwing different textures and fabrics over it. I’d use butcher paper, parchment paper, baking sheets, place mats, and anything else that might work to enhance the colors in my shot and also to add texture and interest to the shot."

Good composition comes from:
1. Rule of Thirds
2. Numbers - "Odd numbers often create a better composition. So three (cups/plates) generally make a better composition /photo than two."
3. Lines
4. Negative space - "A photo is much more realistic, pleasant to look at and tells more of a story if I back up a bit and create some negative space in a picture."
5. Storytelling
6. The rule that really is a rule - "The viewer should feel an emotion without noticing what the photographer was thinking or trying to achieve while shooting the photo, because then the focus on the food is taken away."
