Food photography for chocolate tart packaging — multiple shots taken and retouched to packaging standard. An image that needed to work in print, on shelf and at small sizes simultaneously.
Part of a packaging series for a local food manufacturer — consistent backgrounds, with the food always the focus. The kind of brief where the format must never compete with the subject.
Food photography for a national food selection catalogue — a dish shot for pub and restaurant buyers across the UK. The brief was to show quality and protein content clearly; the lighting was critical to making the meat read well in print and on screen.
Commercial food photography for a leading food retailer — a precooked jacket potato with chilli prawn filling, shot to make the ingredients look appetising and readable at catalogue scale. Detail in the filling and texture in the potato skin were both essential to the brief.
Food photography of a lemon tart — the brief was simple: make it look inviting. Close framing and careful lighting brought out the texture of the pastry and the shine of the filling in a shot designed to make the viewer want a slice.
Part of a seafood series — clean backgrounds, simple lighting, and a sharp focus on texture. The brief was straightforward: make it look good enough to eat.
A personal project — a lychee shot for its own sake, exploring form, colour and translucency. The kind of image that comes from curiosity rather than a client brief, and often produces the most interesting results.
Lifestyle photography of a kitchen drawer — part of a series showing movement and ease of use in a kitchen environment. An unusual angle, deliberate lighting and selective retouching combined to turn a functional detail into a compelling image.
Lifestyle photography for a glass cookware range — a kitchen set built in studio, with food prepared in-house. Natural-feel lighting to complement the product and let the cookware speak for itself without the shot feeling artificial.
