Content shoots are not as extensive, expensive, lengthy or complicated. The photos are shot in high resolution and are delivered in both hi res and low res. High Res photos can be used on Websites and Low Res photos can be used on social media. While I do provide an alternative, quality is not sacrificed! It’s just a different type of shoot. 

A full on food photography session can take up to days and are much more expensive due to time, equipment, licensing, printing and time spent editing. The results of these shoots can be rather beautiful, if you have the budget for it.

Most shoots of mine take between 4-6 hours, depending on how many items are to be shot. 

Most shoots of mine result between 100 and 200 photos, both in high res and low res and how organized your team is.

I cannot say this often enough, it is VERY important that ALL team members on your end are informed and prepared for the day of the shoot. 

​

Prior to the date of the shoot, we discuss what look your are going for, if you have any particular shots in mind, how many items will be shot and so on to create an official shot list. 

​

Photoshoots must be done during daylight hours, this is because the best lighting is natural light! Of course, we bring additional lighting just in case but we 100% prefer sunlight to any other source. 

​Photoshoots last between 4 – 6 hours, your team must be ready to accomodate this. We do not rush the shoot, we prefer to take our time with each item, refine it, touch it up, play around with lighting and angles. Each dish can take up to 30 minutes to shoot. 

No, not at all! We’re fairly good at working around our surroundings. However, we do recommend having us come in before opening so we can get a head start. All we need is a small area, some good lighting, a few outlets and a staff member to coordinate with.

Photos are turned in between 7-10 days after the shoot. 

It can be, however this must be discussed at the beginning of the agreement. This is due to the amount of lighting needed, how big the rooms are, how big the whole venue is etc. We cannot accommodate venue shots without notice as we will not be able to guarantee quality.

I do — in fact, it’s one of my favorite things to photograph! I’m experienced at making photos in busy restaurant kitchens and have the ability to blend into the background and stay out of the way while still capturing great images of the staff in action.

I usually will hire a food stylist to make the most of our shoot day and deliver perfectly styled images for your project. For a select few (and small) photo shoots, I can provide styling, but it greatly impacts the number of images I’m able to deliver per day.

With years of experience as both graphic designer and art director, I work well within a creative team environment and love to work from layout comps or turn written art direction into reality. If you do not have art direction for your project and need me to provide it, let’s discuss! It’s a service I offer in addition to photography.
