Food Styling Masterclasses

Once upon a time, it was perfectly reasonable to post a slightly blurry picture of your lunch on Instagram. Even the worst of shots could be redeemed with a forgiving filter and quick tilt shift. But let’s be frank – average pics don’t just cut it anymore.

Nowadays, your audience is far more sophisticated. They want a well-lit, expertly-presented plate of food to pop up on their feed, complete with trimmings and lifestyle accessories thrown in for good measure. Social media is serious about styling.

This June, OXO is joining forces with food writers, stylists and cooks Eve O’Sullivan and Rosie Reynolds food styling masterclass that will teach you the professional tricks of the trade and have you snapping away like a pro. Having styled shoots for Ella Woodward, Good Food, Olive and the Guardian, as well as finding the time to write their much anticipated cookbook debut, The Kitchen Shelf, this foodie dream team are the perfect pair to pass on their styling and food entertaining knowledge.

Arrive with your smartphone and leave with a stream full of photos that will be good enough to eat…we won’t judge you if you lick your screen!
