Here’s a cool site about food advertising. It includes 3 examples on how to prepare a delicious meal dish for a photoshoot. As far as i know, there aren’t much of food stylists around here in Kuwait, maybe 1 or 2 max.

Interesting reference site i found, it’s all about logo identities and how they changed with time “before and after kinda thing”, with a small brief of these logos launch dates and the story behind it. The archive of this site goes back to year 1998 so it’s worth a surf. [Identity Works]
