I just love shooting food made in your kitchen and placed on the table for others to enjoy. Using the various elements that make your space unique (like the crockery, table surface, lighting etc), I find exciting ways to bring your gastronomic creations to life. Before our first shoot I always try to sit down together to talk through the menu, ensuring I have a really good feel for the essence of your cooking. I can then set to work creating great images that complement the food, style and atmosphere of your establishment and look great to customers new and old.

There are times when it’s best to take complete control of the shooting environment and work in the studio. Whether you need clean, bold pack shots of your product, or want to photograph an item from your menu in a more stylised manner, a studio shoot could be the answer. Based just off Cheltenham Road, in the centre of Bristol, my studio space offers a chance to watch stunning images materialise right before your eyes. Advanced lighting and fast tethered shooting allow you to directly input on the process, and enable you to see the images on the computer screen straight away. Once you are happy with the shots taken on the day, they can be proofed securely online, processed, and then delivered to you in a variety of digital formats.

Showing your customers the wonderful spaces you have created for them and giving them a glimpse ‘behind-the-scenes’ is a great way to develop the story behind your business and show off the skills that lie in the kitchen. I love the energy and bustle found in professional kitchens, and I think it’s wonderful to get a chance to capture these moments of brilliance. Combining interior and reportage style photography you to show off both the smaller details and the wider ambiance of a building and give your customers a great idea of the treat they’re in for when they visit you.
