Got questions

Food photography — FAQs.

What types of food photography do you offer?

We cover the full spectrum — restaurant and menu photography, chef portraits, editorial food shoots, beverage and cocktail photography, branded campaigns, social media content, venue and atmosphere photography, event catering coverage and drone photography of outdoor food venues. Every shoot is tailored to your brand, platform and audience.

Do you shoot at our restaurant or venue?

Yes — on-location shoots at your restaurant, café, bar or food venue are our most common format. We work around your service hours and bring all equipment. For product and menu shoots that require more controlled lighting, we can also set up a portable studio on-site or discuss a dedicated studio session.

Do you style the food or do we need a food stylist?

For most restaurant and menu shoots we work directly with your kitchen team to present dishes at their best — natural, appetising and true to what guests actually receive. For editorial campaigns and high-end branded content, we can bring in a professional food stylist. We advise on the right approach during the booking process.

How quickly are photos delivered?

Standard delivery is 3–7 business days. For urgent social media content or menu launches, express turnaround is available on request. We confirm delivery timing with you before the shoot.

Can we combine food photography and video in one shoot?

Yes — many clients book photo and video together for a complete content package. Recipe videos, restaurant reels, chef stories and social content all from one crew and one shoot day. More efficient and more cost-effective than booking separately.

What formats are the final photos delivered in?

All photos are delivered as high-resolution files for print and web-optimised versions for digital use — menus, websites, Instagram, delivery platforms and press. All formats included, no extra cost.

Where do you shoot food photography?

We are based in Copenhagen and shoot across Denmark — restaurants, food markets, hotels, catering companies and brand studios. We also travel internationally for food and drink campaigns when needed.

How much does food photography cost?

Sessions start from 4,500 DKK excl. VAT for a half-day shoot. Full-day productions with multiple dishes, locations or styled setups are quoted individually. Contact us with your brief and we will come back with a clear quote within 24 hours — no hidden costs.

Do you offer drone photography for outdoor food venues?

Yes — we are certified drone pilots and can include aerial photography for outdoor food markets, waterfront venues and large food events. We handle all permits and coordinate with venue management. Particularly popular for Copenhagen’s harbour-side and street food venues.
