F.A.Q.

We go to you or you come to us?

We can easily adapt to your premise and schedule as we believe the best place to shoot the food is where it’s getting cooked. All photos in our portfolio are taken in clients’ locations, restaurants, hotels, etc.

Do you photograph or film in London only?

No. We cover the whole island and abroad. We do, however, have to add on a charge to cover transport and, on rare occasions, accommodation costs; however, we try to keep these costs to a minimum.

When can we get the images?

We try to deliver up to 2 days after the photo shoot because we know how important it is for your business and social media.

How do we book?

After agreement on the date/time and location, you’ll be given bank details to deposit for the photo shoot. The balance is due on the day.

Food photography is as important as the menu! … and the job of the professional food photographer is to prove it and make you more profitable.

Restaurants, food manufacturers, wedding venues, and catering organisations can all take advantage of the skills we have developed in this area. Delicious Food Photography is the hardest category in the still photography genre; it requires imagination, passion, tricks and lighting. The right angle, the right emphasis on critical focusing and the delicate art of balancing the plated items for the most effective use of colour.

We photograph food for restaurants, packaging, and magazine editorial projects, and we have experience working for high-end London restaurants, graphic design and web design companies, grocery stores, catering companies, and cuisine manufacturers. As a prospective client, you should know that you will get creative food imagery for your business that, in the final images, looks tasty and is professionally applied to the task beyond expectation.
