The Art of Plating: Main Courses & Entrees

I make your hero dishes the star of the show. I work closely with chefs to capture the textures, colors, and intricate details of each plate, whether it's a vibrant Indian curry, delicate pasta, or modern fusion cuisine. This gallery includes both top-down flat lays for menus and angled shots that highlight the dish's unique architecture.

Sweet Indulgence: Desserts & Baked Goods

I capture the irresistible allure of desserts, from the layers of a cake to the glossy finish on a tart. My styling focuses on making sweets look as delicious as they taste, using bright lighting for cafes and bakeries or moody setups for fine-dining desserts. This includes everything from traditional Indian sweets to modern pastries and waffles.

Liquid Art: Cocktails, Coffees & Beverages

I specialize in beverage photography that captures personality and action. This includes dynamic splash shots for cocktails, detailed latte art for cafes, and refreshing mocktails styled to match the drink's character. I use lighting to highlight the color, texture, and garnishes of every drink.

Capturing the Vibe: Restaurant Ambience & Action

A restaurant's story is more than just its food. I capture the energy of the kitchen, the elegance of the dining space, and the human element of the dining experience. These lifestyle and ambiance shots, from chefs in action to beautifully set tables, help customers imagine themselves in your space.

Product & Ingredient Storytelling

My work extends to capturing the core ingredients and products that define a brand. I create styled, thematic images for product packaging, websites, and marketing campaigns. This includes moody, textured shots of whole spices or bright, clean compositions for packaged goods.
