"The FOODPHOTO FESTIVAL Vejle is not cheap, with its entrance fee, travel costs and hotel, so of course I am interested in also making commercial contacts. This worked out really well 2 years ago. After the Festival I received several interesting assignments of magazines I spoke to on the Festival. So it has been very successful for me from a commercial point of view next to the interesting contacts that grew between the participating photographers.“ Jan Wischnewski, Photographer
"I thought I knew the business from back to front but as I sat on the return flight to London, I realised I knew the London food & photo scene but after 4 days chatting to new friends from New York, Chile etc I had learned so much more about photography. Before I had landed, my mind had been so inspired from what I had seen & heard, I couldn't wait to shoot lots of new tests. My photography has improved as a result, my new tests brought in new campaigns." Hugh Johnson, Photographer
“The editorial “Der Feinschmecker" has greatly benefited from the festival. Not only have we got a clear picture of the high standard of European and non-European food photography, we also benefited from the contacts we made there. Some of the photographers present there have been published since the festival with beautiful photos in our magazine."
Peter Steiner - Art Director Der Feinschmecker
