The Food Photography Process

How do we plan a photo shoot?  What is the process?  Is there a step by step formula? There is definitely a process, but every client has a different final vision, and a different way they would like images to move their company forward.  That is why your project is built around you, and your needs.

Whether you are a small artisan producer, a national food organization, a cookbook author, or a restaurant,

You have a food story to tell.  
That is where we start, defining your food story and planning images that best communicate your company's message.

After an initial chat, we get to work on planning and prepping your photo shoot.

​

Some questions to consider:

Are we shooting on location, or in studio setting? 

Do we need a food stylist? Is there a chef involved?

What is the background of the image going to to be? Or what do we want it to look and feel like?

Will we require props?

Yeah it is Photo Shoot Day! (My favourite day...)

 

It will be fun.  We  have created a detailed plan and shot list.  We are ready to roll.  

 

*It can also be lot of standing, and watching computer screens all day,  I recommend, comfy shoes, snacks that make you happy, and caffeine. 
 

STEP 3

Hours and hours of editing final images

(because that is my job too!)

 

Delivery of images to clients, via Dropbox.

​

Next  time you are looking to create new images, you know where to find me, and how easy the process will be.

Working together remotely...

If you are not located in Calgary, Alberta,

or do not have time to attend a photo shoot,

​

We can still, work together.

Because, yeah -Technology!
