Enhance your still-life photography with this free PDF guide that unveils the key composition techniques used by professional photographers.
Meet Daniela
It's true that Daniela Constantini (@daniela_constantini) was kind enough to share this free PDF guide to still life composition tips with us, but her credits encompass much more:
Born in Mexico and now living in Switzerland, the prolific photographer graduated from the Visual Journalism and Documentary Practice program at the prestigious International Center of Photography in New York. Now portraiture, still life, and lifestyle are the focal points of her work.
We could understand it as an evolving interest from documenting people's life to fruits and vegetables' life cycle... Decaying fruit is just decaying life... But we could also understand it as a "foodie" - Oh, no! I could've made me a smoothie with all that fruit! -.
Still Life Chiaroscuro Photography
In the still undisclosed Free PDF Daniela is giving us a taste of her delicious Domestika course on still life chiaroscuro photography. It is tasty and rich in valuable information, but the still lifes might not be as tasty after sitting there for so long...!
In this course you will learn how to compose evocative still life images inspired by classic paintings, from composition to final retouching step by step. Daniela might explain her goals with still life photography better, herself:
"My still life photography is largely inspired by the great painters of the 17th to 19th centuries. My goal is to evoke a feeling of nostalgia and remember bygone times."

It's finally here at your fingertips! An incredible insight into composition in general, not only for rotting food photography... But, what is a family portrait if not an image of rotting life at different stages of development, anyways? Or what is a city landscape made up by, but buildings bound to be eaten away by time...? "Am I sad that the article is coming to an end?" No. Why would you ask that?
It's all crumbling down (at various speeds) so if you happen upon a good composition better take the shot now, or forever hold your peace!

Now it's your time to shine! But you might not know what button to press to take a picture or you might not know where to buy such good looking fruit, or you might not know how to hold a stable job or a romantic partner or you might not know how to comprehend a large text...
Domestika might not be able to help you with all those tasks but it can give you additional guidance on a large range of artistic endeavors, once you learn how to read, of course.
