Original Photo: Getty Images stock photo
My recreation:
For this recreation, I decided to recreate a stock image of a bowl of cereal. I tried to create this photo naturally, using only real foods, because I know that food photography often uses adhesives, artificial foods, and other "tricks" to make the food look as good as possible. It is also common for the food to be arranged so that it looks "perfect." I thought it would be a challenge to make real food that is not arranged or altered look good in a photograph. I used the normal lighting in my kitchen, which is quite harsh and yellowish, in order to give it more authenticity. I think this is what makes the biggest difference between the two photos. The original seems to have bright, natural light, as if it were taken outside. I decided to make this a color photograph because I felt it would not have the same effect in black and white.
