"But now everyone wants me to take photos, so that I can send them to them and they can share them on their WeChat moments or Instagram."

Before shooting for a new restaurant, Ye does a lot research to find out what is unique about the dishes, and bring in new ideas when shooting the food.

"I discuss things with the chefs about what they want to present and I consider the design of the menu when I take the photos," says Ye.

"For example, some restaurant wants their clients to order fast and eat quickly. So, then I'll take the photos to showcase what each dish looks like."

Ye says that nowadays many servers in restaurants cannot introduce their dishes clearly enough, so she lets the photo of each dish speak for itself.

"I insist that my photos look exactly like the way the dish will be served to the diners," says Ye.

But sometimes to make the presentation of the dish better, Ye suggests the chefs change the plating a little bit, so that it can fit both her shoot and the restaurant.
