Powder Press is an absolutely stunning food photography series created by the collaboration of German photographers Kai Stiepel and Kelly Kellerhoff. They beautifully used colorful pressed powder as background to eye-catchy dishes.
I have had many productions for the cosmetics industry over the years. It often happened that powder served as a base. That always had a very special appeal for me. When I was planning a freelance project with the food stylist Guido Gravelius, I showed him a few such shots. We then adapted the principle for food photography. The production was a lot of fun and is, in my opinion, unseen. By focus stacking I got all the shots completely sharp. This brings a lot of datails when viewed larger.
