Food Photography: Som Bo Restaurant (Chelsea, Manhattan)

Som Bo is a Chelsea-based Asian-fusion eatery specializing in healthy, to-go food with a focus on rice bowls and vegetables. I was commissioned to produce a shoot to document their new new, revamped dishes for use on their website, menu, and social media.

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D750, using an AF-S Nikkor 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 lens, and individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using my own custom presets.
