What kind of jobs are there working for a food magazine?

I would like to work for a food magazine, but I don't know what kind of jobs there are. Ideally, I'd like to work as a food photographer (if there even is such a thing) or layout editor, but I'd like to know what other jobs there are. #photography #food #editor #magazine #food-styling #page-layout

Emily, food magazines such as Saveur, employ or contract food photographers and writers. What I suggest is looking at a food magazine, and in the first few pages, they list the names and titles of people who work for it. That way you can get a feel for some of the positions available. You can also Google forums for food photographers, join for free, and get tips from food photographers


I am a firm believer in having a side or full business of your own. Do you currently take pictures of food? Do you like to write? If so, you can increase you marketability as a freelancer or future employee by being able to review and take pictures of the food you review. Check out food bloggers in your area and online, and get a feel for what they do. For example, in Atlanta, there is the Atlanta Food Bloggers' Society.

There are two ways to do the food magazine. One is what you said, be a food photographer. You can read some magazines, like "Food Network Magazine" and "Good Housekeeping" to find advise. Then you can go to some local restaurant to eat, take pictures and common this food, which can training your self.

The other way is do the food videography. This is more popular ways. You can see a lot food documentaries on the Netflix. You can film food, find the chief and customer to interview them and share their experience, story and advise about the food.

Hope this can help you. Good Luck.
