Photographer Stelios Demetriou gives participants tips on what to pay attention to when photographing food with their mobile phones, both during the food preparation process as well as the finished dishes. The cooking and photography workshop take place in a professional kitchen, giving participants the opportunity not only to see what professional kitchens look like, but to prepare food in this environment themselves.

The workshop ends by enjoying the meal that was jointly prepared, accompanied by a glass of local wine.
