Books that suit food photography
How it prints on KDP
In color, it prints on KDP's premium or standard color interiors, on white paper. It needs a color interior; for black & white books, choose a line-art, ink or pencil style. Compare what each interior costs with the printing cost calculator, and read how to choose the trim size and paper.
Same characters, every page
Before the pages are painted, each main character gets a reference sheet in this style. Every illustration is drawn with those sheets as references, so faces, clothes and colors stay the same from the cover to the last page. Text is never painted into the art: titles, captions and speech bubbles are typeset on top. See community books illustrated in food photography.

About this style
Which books suit the Food photography style?
Food photography is offered for cookbook. You can still pick it for any other book type, or describe your own style.
Can Food photography be printed in black and white?
No. Food photography is a color style: use it with KDP's premium or standard color interiors. For a black & white book, choose a line-art or ink style instead.
Will my characters look the same on every page?
Yes. Main characters get a reference sheet before the pages are drawn, and every illustration is painted with it as a reference, in the same style from the cover to the last page.
Can I sell books illustrated in this style?
Yes, on a paid plan: paid plans include a commercial license for the books you make. KDP asks you to declare AI-generated images, including the cover, when you publish.
