Work Process
We start by learning about your restaurant, brand, or food product. From signature dishes to your target audience, we align on style, mood, and marketing goals. This ensures every shot reflects your brand personality and appeals to your customers while staying visually consistent and appetizing.
Once the vision is clear, we plan locations, props, lighting setups, and food styling. We create mood boards and shot lists to organize every detail. This preparation ensures a smooth shoot, highlights the textures, colors, and presentation of the dishes, and guarantees images are polished and high-end.
Before the shoot, we prepare cameras, lenses, lighting, and studio or on-location setups. We adjust everything to capture the food at its most appetizing angle and color. Every technical aspect is tested in advance so we can focus fully on creativity and capturing mouth-watering visuals.
During the shoot, we guide chefs, models, or hands-on props while keeping a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere. We focus on natural movement, texture, and detail. Each shot captures the freshness, appeal, and story behind the dish, making food look irresistible while reflecting your brand style.
After shooting, we select the best images and enhance them professionally. Color, brightness, contrast, and sharpness are adjusted to make dishes look vivid and realistic. Retouching ensures every plate looks flawless while keeping the food authentic and visually appetizing.
We deliver your images in high-resolution formats ready for menus, social media, websites, or advertising. We provide support for minor edits or future shoots, ensuring consistency and a professional visual identity. Many clients return because they trust our process, creativity, and reliability.
