Restaurant Photography Projects

Written By Judy Doherty

I specialize in helping restaurants and chefs create outstanding menu images. I deliver high-quality results with my mobile studio, expert styling, and advanced Photoshop skills. Take a look at recent projects where I collaborated with chefs on location to style dishes, followed by retouching and editing for menus, signs, and banners.

Compelling restaurant food photography must make the food look appetizing and relatable while staying true to its authentic presentation. Having photographed hundreds of restaurant menus, I’m equipped to easily handle any lighting and production setup.

I am a food, beverage, and CPG product photographer specializing in photos, stop motion, and video, with over 90,000 photos and motion graphics delivered. Clients hire me for my eye, creative direction, and passion for taking their idea to the next level.

My strength lies in a nimble and lean creative process. Clients love getting creative content at a reasonable cost since my studio can art direct, style, and shoot their images quickly and on budget. My studio features an extensive surface library and prop house with a fully equipped kitchen and two shooting studios.

My experience as a chef, stylist, and photographer has earned many awards, including APA Top 100, ACF Gold Medal, and a juried fine art photo exhibit at Art Basel Miami. I was Executive Pastry Chef for two Hyatt Hotels and Resorts before completing two post-baccalaureate certificates for Visual Art and Graphic Design at U.C. Berkeley Extension in San Francisco.
