Francesco's passion for photographing food developed naturally. His first big break came when a friend asked him to photograph cheese for an e-commerce site, and from there, his career flourished. Today, Francesco's work graces the pages of the New York Times and many top-tier culinary brands.
Every food photographer should consider a macro lens. Every professional food photographer should own one already.
