Better food photography tips from a professional food photographer

Food photos are quietly deciding where people eat

Before menus.
Before reviews.
Before recommendations.

People see one photo and decide.

Most restaurants aren’t losing customers because the food isn’t good — they’re losing them because the photo doesn’t translate the food.

Chefs send me a photo you took of your own dish.
I critique it without judgment, explain why it isn’t working for the camera, and show simple fixes (light, angle, plating).

I'll ask you to reshoot it, and I'll show the before & after, and feature it on my YouTube channel called Chefs Shoot Food, explaining the process for other chefs to learn.

No fancy gear.
No turning chefs into photographers.
Just helping chefs take better photos of their own food.

If you’re looking for honest feedback, DM me your food photos to be featured.

Happy to answer questions 🍽️📸.
