Food & restaurant photographer
Brooklyn · Manhattan · Queens
Most guests see your food online before they see it in person: on Google, on Instagram, on your website and in the delivery apps. We light and frame every dish so it looks the way it tastes, then deliver a consistent, edited set you can use everywhere.
What we
photograph.
One shoot covers the whole restaurant, so every channel gets images that look like they belong together.
Menu and signature dishes
Hero shots of the plates you want people to order, plus the details and textures that make them look irresistible.
Drinks and cocktails
Cocktails, wine and coffee, photographed at the bar or at the table.
Interiors, patio and exterior
The dining room, the bar, the patio and the storefront, so guests can picture their visit.
Chefs and staff
The team behind the food, at the pass and on the floor.
Overheads and shared tables
Spreads that show off the menu at a glance, made for feeds, menus and banners.
Ready for every screen
Edited, color-corrected high-resolution JPEGs for your menu, website, Google Business Profile, social media and delivery apps.
