Chicken Shawarma by Natalia ZotovaChicken Shawarma by Natalia Zotova
It is a shawarma - a wrap with chicken. I shot dishes for a restaurant in Koh Samui, Thailand. They invited me to shoot all the dishes for the menu. I spent 5 days shooting. I used natural light, reflectors, black panels, and a tripod. It was the most difficult dish to shoot because it didn't look well. But then I put some sauce and fried onion and colorful ingredients like tomatoes and zucchini. And use different angles and plans. so finally we got a few good pictures.

They had special smokers. They invited me to shoot dishes for the menu. I spent 5 days shooting. I used natural light, reflectors, black panels and a tripod. Unfortunately, I don't have raw photo and I don't know EXIF information.
