KEH recently had the opportunity to host our first food photography workshop at District M Japanese Restaurant. We joined forces with Atlanta photographer and foodie, Julius Mayo Jr. He taught techniques and tips to a group of local bloggers, photographers and all around creatives. 

Julius spent a few hours teaching lighting techniques, providing a demo session and then letting our guest have their hands at the action. Each influencer brought their camera gear and we brought a variety of different lenses for them to test out.

After spending a few hours photographing some menu items, our guests were pretty hungry. Chef Jackie Chang prepared a full course of some of his best dishes—boy, were they delicious!
