Food & Drink
Appetising, true-to-life food and drink photography for menus, websites and social.
Food that looks like it did on the pass.
Menus, producers, packaging and hospitality interiors — for restaurants, pubs, cafes, food brands and the people who supply them.
Food photography goes wrong when it is styled into something the kitchen cannot repeat. I shoot what the chef actually sends out, in daylight where there is daylight, and quickly enough that it is photographed while it still looks the way it should.
A shoot usually covers the dishes, the room and the people making it, because a plate on its own rarely fills a website. Sets come back sized for the site, the delivery platforms and the grid.
What a shoot covers
- Dishes as they leave the pass
- Drinks and bar
- The kitchen and the team
- The room and the covers
- Packaging and product
- Ingredient and detail shots
