Rochester NY food photographer + stylist

FOOD & PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY

Want to connect with your ideal customer? Showcase your hard work in the best possible light? Stand out in an oversaturated space?

Whatever your style and needs, having someone who’s experienced in creating impactful images can bring your work to another level.

Maybe you’re currently swamped with other, important work, and you don’t have the time or energy to put into learning (and actually following through with!) how to take great photos.

Maybe you gave one of your employees the task of taking photos, but they don’t have the experience or strategy to make something that matches with your brand, your vibe, or what you imagine you want your work to really look like.

I’ve spent half of my life learning the art of photography, lighting, food styling, and all the other functional details that go into making images - and I want to share my expertise with you, to make your work better than it’s ever been.

the process

GET IN TOUCH. You contact me below, with some details of what you’re wanting to do. We chat (via email or video call) about your needs, what I can do for you, and details on what the shoot might look like. We decide on a session that’ll work for you, and a 50% deposit is made so I can start preparing any materials I might need.

MAKE A LIST. If you already have branding & moodboard info, great, but if not, I come up with a moodboard/thumbnail sketches, depending on the complexity of what you’re looking for. While I do that, you come up with a shot list that follows your needs. (That might be a list of your best-sellers, items you want to feature more, etc.)

PREP. Prepare the items for the shoot - whether that means getting a chef making your shot list that day, or shipping products to me to remotely shoot in my studio, or whatever else we talk about in our meeting.

SHOOT. Do the shoot! This looks different for every client - you can be more or less hands-on in yours!

EDIT & DELIVERY. I do light edits in line with your brand, including retouching, and deliver the small-resolution previews of the photos within 7 working days of the shoot. You send over the remaining 50% of the payment, then I send over the final full-resolution files, along with the RAWs, for you to use in whatever you need them for.
