Food Photography

People eat with their eyes first.

Professional food photography is about more than food: it is about the story that all of the elements that make up a photograph tell about that food. A great culinary photographer understands how composition, lighting, tabletop, and background all come together and how to guide these elements to tell a story for a specific purpose. The story that a restaurant photographer tells in the images can differ based on the intent of each image. For instance, we can depict a fine dining experience by incorporating the style and characters of the restaurant’s setting. At the same time, editorial images about food can be more about the ingredients and composition of the dish. We can help guide you in this process to capture the perfect pictures for you.

Photographs of your food and restaurant on your website and social media pages are the first thing your potential customers will see. Professionally shot images will make your food look as delicious as it is, on your website, menu, as well as on your digital platforms. These images will get you returning and new customers. It’s not just the delicious-looking food images, your customers want to see and understand what kind of ambiance you have at your restaurant. They want to know how the dining experience will be and they want to see behind the scenes, your team, and your chefs. How is the food prepared? How is it served? The more you show your audience, the easier they will be convinced to come to your restaurant instead of going anywhere else. Once you've invested in high-quality photos, you can use them to promote your restaurant across all your platforms — website, social media accounts, emails, and third-party platforms like Zomato, Swiggy, UberEats, Google My Business, etc. Your menu photos will be a key component of your marketing toolkit for years to come.
