Plate and Prop Cleanup
Flat food photos can make even the most delicious meals look unappetizing. Without shadows and reflections, dishes may appear unrealistic or poorly presented, which can turn away potential customers. Our Shadow & Reflection Creation service enhances food photography by adding natural depth, balance, and light consistency. By simulating how light interacts with dishes, utensils, and table surfaces, we make food images look authentic, mouthwatering, and ready to capture attention.
What is Plate & Prop Cleanup in Food Photo Editing?
Plate & Prop Cleanup is the process of retouching food photos to remove unwanted imperfections on plates, bowls, utensils, and surrounding props. This includes cleaning up crumbs, stains, scratches, smudges, and unnecessary objects that can distract from the dish.
Our editors use precise retouching tools to make plates and props look spotless while keeping the food natural and realistic. Whether you’re showcasing meals for a restaurant menu, delivery platform, or food advertisement, this service ensures that your presentation looks clean, consistent, and visually appealing.
