Scene 01Food and product photography

What we photograph

Dishes from the menu, coffee and desserts, breakfast spreads, packaged goods and products on the shelf, plus table settings, the kitchen, the bar and the venue as a whole. Our archive includes food and product shoots for restaurants, cafés and bakeries, and packaged-goods brands.

The goal of food photography is to show the plate as it is served: appetising and consistent. When every photo on a menu is shot with the same light, the same logic of angles and the same colour treatment, it reads as one set on the printed menu and online.

Scene 02Food and product photography

How a shoot runs

  • Preparation: the menu or product list, which dishes to shoot, the order and reference images.
  • Set-up: portable lighting, table and background on location; daylight when it suits.
  • Shooting: Sony A7R III and A7 IV; a wide, a close and a detail frame for each dish.
  • Working with the kitchen: dishes come out in order and are shot while hot, outside service hours.
  • Short video on the same day: on request we also capture short clips of the dishes for reels and stories.

  • Product brands: product photos for e-commerce and catalogues, packaging details.
  • Jewellers and shops: product and window photography with careful control of reflections.

What you get

Colour-corrected photos in 4:5 and 1:1 crops for Instagram, plus landscape or portrait versions for menus and websites. We also prepare a selected set for your Google Business Profile on Google Maps: exterior, interior, signature dishes and the menu. Files arrive in a tidy delivery folder named by dish or product, so you can find what you need when the next menu goes to print.

Photography can be part of our monthly content work or a one-off job. We agree the scope together based on the number of dishes and products.

When people are in the frame

A waiter serving or guests at a table bring a photo to life. On shoot days we place a privacy notice at the venue entrance and collect separate explicit consent from anyone featured. Images with identifiable people are never uploaded to cloud services.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Who is the best food photographer in Trabzon?

Check menus and product shots the photographer delivered for real venues, consistency across a whole menu, and whether the files arrive cropped for 4:5, 1:1 and Google Maps. Our food and product work is in the portfolio.

How does a menu photo shoot in Trabzon work?

We get the menu in advance and agree which dishes to shoot and in what order. The shoot takes place at your venue outside service hours; we set up light and background, and the kitchen prepares the dishes one by one so they are photographed hot. Photos are delivered colour-corrected, in Instagram, menu and website crops.

Do we need to bring our products to a studio?

No. With portable lights and backgrounds we can shoot at your venue or shop. For a large number of small products it can be quicker to send them to us for a day; we decide this together based on the product count.

Do you shoot photos for Google Maps business profiles?

Yes. We prepare a set covering the exterior, entrance, interior, signature dishes and menu. If you want visitors to walk through the whole venue, we also shoot 360° virtual tours; that is a separate service.

Can you film video on the same day?

Yes. During the photo shoot we can capture short clips of the dishes and the kitchen for reels and stories. For monthly content clients, photos and video are usually planned on the same shoot day.

What does food and product photography cost?

We don't publish packages or price lists. We agree the scope based on the number of dishes or products, locations and delivery formats, and send a written proposal.
