This is how you put your Christmas dinner in the best picture

Instagram filters, accessories, corners… With these tips, your Christmas meal will look the best in the photo.

Tips for the best photo

Not everything has to be perfect
Crumbles, take a bite out… It can give your photos something extra.

Note the background
It can be nice if the background is calm, but a nice napkin, a candle, a nice bowl or old-fashioned cutlery in the background can make your photo special. By paying attention to the background you can convey the atmosphere well.

Try a different angle
Turn your plate a quarter turn, take the photo straight from above, from the front or from the corner.

Lighting is important
Good light can make a photo so much better. Unfortunately, this is not always available in the dark days around Christmas. Fortunately, you can also use candles and floor lamps to bring some more light into your photo.


Tips for choosing a filter

More light
With Amaro you can lighten photos taken in a dark setting. This can be useful, as Christmas dinner is usually eaten in the dark.

Color and drama
X-Pro, Lo-Fi and Hefe are the three filters with the brightest colors. They add some drama to your photos, but can be too much if the colors are already popping in your photo.

Vintage look
For a vintage look, you're always in the right place with the Earlybird filter.
