A Commercial Food Photographer

That Makes Ordinary Food Enticingly Delicious

If you’re in the food business, your food has to look better than perfect.  This rule applies regardless if it’s pizza or fine dining – for a cookbook, menu or advertising food photography.  If it has that wow factor created by a professional commercial food photographer it will sell for you. 

As an experienced commercial food photographer, Michelle Manzoni knows that your food images are part of your brand so they must be nothing short of mouthwatering.  A photographer may work with a food stylist to create the vision for that appetizingly delicious shot.  Many of the best food photographers will employ a stylist to assist.  A food stylist however, may not be necessary.  For larger projects like menu photography or cookbooks when multiple menu items are shot in rapid succession, they would contribute greatly.

Michelle has styled many of the shots she’s taken.  Her experience comes from having set up the shots for each of the cookbooks she’s done and many other projects she’s photographed.

However, she humbly attributes much of the appetizing imagery to excellent food staging skills of chefs with whom she’s collaborated.  You can see for yourself – many of the images are included in her food photographer portfolio.

Food Photographer Rates Vary Greatly
For Advertising Food Photography

As you look to select a commercial food photographer, you may discover that  food photography rates can vary greatly.  When comparing prices on your short list, be sure that you are dealing with commercial food photographers that specialize in food.

Some general photographers may claim that all photography is the same but the results they produce are sure to disappoint you.  Ask for samples of previous work.  Once you’ve narrowed your search to the best food photographers ask if the quote includes a food stylist.  If not, does he or she have food styling experience? Study their food photographer portfolio page and ask if there was a food stylist that contributed to those images.

Commercial food photographers have special lenses, lighting and training to pull off the shots that very few people can even imagine.  If your food images appear in menus, magazines or websites they’ll be seen by many thousands of people.  You’ll want them to be nothing short of enticingly appetizing.

Michelle is among the best food photographers, known to have that innate skill to create food images that look so scrumptious that you’ll want to eat the paper they’re printed on.
