With its striking blue-and-white contrasts and landscapes that vary from coast to country to ancient architecture, Greece is a photographer’s dream. But how do you translate what you’re seeing into professional-looking holiday photography, without lugging around a ton of equipment or getting a master’s degree in fine arts? You learn some simple tricks and tips. Here, Gourmet Traveller photographers Taryn Peck and Elise Hassey share advice on shooting all of Greece’s beauty – from the Aegean to Athens – which can easily be applied to wherever you may be heading next.
FILTERS AND EDITING
Both Peck and Hassey use professional editing software: Hassey likes Adobe Lightroom with a few extra tweaks in Photoshop, while Peck likes Lightroom and Capture One. However, both photographers say that smartphones have a few neat editing apps that also do the job: Peck likes the VSCO app and Hassey says that she’s a fan of the filtering tools available within Instagram. When shooting holiday shots, Peck says she tends to warm up her images a little to make them feel sunnier, but the main trick is practice. “Play around until you find what works for you,” she says.

HEART AND SOUL
Not a vegetable but rather a flower bud that rises on a thistle, the artichoke is a complex delight. Its rewards are hard won; first you must get past the armour of petals and remove the hairy choke. Those who step up are rewarded with sweet and savoury creaminess and the elusive flavour of spring. Many of the recipes here begin with the same Provençal braise. Others call on the nuttiness of artichokes in their raw form. The results make pasta lighter and chicken brighter or can be fried to become a vessel for bold flavours all of which capture the levity of the season.
