Duets shoot images with introduction and evaluation

Firstly as a group (around 7 of us) went down in to the cafeteria and set up the photography equipment, this included the camera, the tripod, wires that connected lights to the camera and other wires that connected the camera to the laptop so we could immediately save images and for it to be more easily viewed as there were quite a few of us participating.
When we were ready to start taking pictures we asked the chefs to bring out some of the meals they have cooked for us to take imagery of. This included chips, mushroom soup, vegetables in pita bread, lasagne and a chocolate desert. We then started taking images of the meals in turns, at different angles and there was some debate about how the pictures were taken but in the end we all decided on at least one image from every meal that we liked. We had a variety of different place mats and napkin to arrange to make it look more professional. This helped a lot and the colours helped with what dishes were put out so it didn't look too plain or too busy.
I believe the photo shoot went really well and the only thing I would change about it would be to know who was taking on what role within this shoot as everyone was confused at the beginning and didn't really  know what to do,.
