What does a professional food photographer do?
A professional food photographer captures stunning images of food, using advanced lighting, composition, and camera skills to highlight the textures and colors of each dish. Their work transforms culinary creations into irresistible visuals for menus, advertisements, and social media.
Complementing this, a food stylist ensures every detail is picture-perfect, arranging ingredients, plating dishes, and enhancing their natural beauty. From adding shine to creating balance and color, they use creative techniques to elevate the food’s appeal.
When necessary, we collaborate with the art department to design custom backgrounds, props, and effects, creating immersive visuals that align perfectly with your brand’s identity. Together, we tell a visual story that turns food into art.

Do I need a food photographer for my restaurant or my product?

FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY - MAKE OF
Creating stunning photographs of your dishes, cocktails, or other food products often involves combining state-of-the-art cameras and lighting equipment, the expertise of a professional food stylist to handle and enhance the appeal of the product, and an art department that provides backdrops and settings.

What should I expect from a food photographer before a photo shoot?
Typically, we start with a pre-production meeting to understand which foods need to be photographed. We will discuss angles, backgrounds, and ensure that the food styling aligns with the goal of the photo shoot. This one-hour meeting usually involves the photographer, production team, food stylist, and client.
