Common Issues
Food photo looks cold and unappetizing
Why: Phone cameras capture food under harsh or cool lighting that kills the warmth
Adding 'warm' and 'appetizing' triggers AI to use food photography techniques
Harsh flash creates shiny glare on dishes
Why: Direct flash reflects off sauces, glazes, and wet surfaces
Soft overhead lighting is the gold standard for food — AI knows this pattern well
Messy table or background visible in shot
Why: Real restaurant tables have napkins, clutter, and other diners
Focus on the immediate area around the plate rather than the entire background
Colors look off — food appears grey or blue
Why: Mixed lighting (daylight + indoor) confuses white balance
Mention specific colors if known (e.g., 'the tomato should be bright red')
