Bio
My entire working and professional career has been dedicated to working full time in the Restaurant Industry. I have worked in some of the best restaurants in New York and Connecticut for, and with some of the best Chefs in the country. Dining is a passion of mine and I have been lucky enough to have eaten at some of the world's best restaurants in different counties across multiple continents. This has allowed to me experience some of the best food in the world along with the opportunity to photograph it. I approach food photography from the standpoint of what the guest see's and 'Capturing food as it's presented.' When working with restaurants and chefs to photograph their food, this principle is at the forefront of my mind. I think about how food is not only plated from a diners perspective, but eaten as well, always trying to meet and exceed their expectation. We eat with our eyes.
Because of my full time employment in the food industry, I am around food constantly and interacting with customers on a daily basis, getting real-time feedback on things that work and don't work which helps me get a perspective and idea of how to photograph food.

Pricing
$300 for a 6 hour session on location. I will get you enough photos for at least two months worth of social media content, and even more. I specialize in high resolution detailed images for social media and website content and can give you all of the images before I leave at the end of the session. I can take restaurant interior photos, food photos, capture staff while they are working, and kitchen staff preparing and plating dishes as well. I really value your input and treat this is as collaboration while I am on site.
I firmly believe in giving back to the industry that has provided and given to me. If you need or want something different than this, I am more than happy to help out and come to an agreement that is good for both of us.
