F.A.Q.
How much time do you need for a shoot?
For most restaurants and cafés, a typical shoot takes 2 to 3 hours, depending on how many food/drink items, interiors, and lifestyle shots you want. Larger venues may require additional time. I always provide a recommended timeline after learning more about your goals.
Do we need to close the restaurant for the photo session?
I can work around service hours when needed. For lifestyle scenes (bar, customers, team), real operating hours can add a nice authentic feel. However, to achieve the highest level of architectural and food photography, I recommend scheduling sessions during “closed” hours or between services. This allows for total control over lighting and composition without disrupting your guests or operations.
How many final images will we receive?
It depends on the project scope, but most restaurants receive 25-30 edited images, focusing on the strongest visuals. I prioritize quality and storytelling over volume, so you only get images that truly represent your brand.
How far in advance should we book?
For restaurants, 2–3 weeks in advance usually works well. For seasonal campaigns or content refreshes, it’s best to book earlier.
Do you photograph menu-style food images?
I specialize in Commercial Lifestyle and Editorial food photography. This means I photograph your menu items in their natural, elevated environment using professional lighting to enhance their appeal. I can offer “white-background” catalog shots, as well as high-impact imagery that is perfect for marketing, social media, and high-end digital menus.
