About Food & Beverage Content Creation
Why I Do What I Do
I’m obsessed with making food look so good, you want to eat it straight from the screen. For me, it’s all about catching those tiny details - the way sunlight hits a fresh croissant or the messy perfection of a cheese pull. I focus on real stories, not just pretty pictures. My visuals aren’t just eye-candy, they help your food business stand out and connect with people.
What I Actually Offer
- Professional restaurant menu photography for everything from flaky pastries to moody bar scenes
- Food styling for social media, including dynamic Reels and thumb-stopping stop-motion
- Behind-the-scenes recipe videos showing chefs, ingredients, and those satisfying ASMR moments (think chopping, sizzling, crunching)
- Beverage photography techniques that capture cocktail splashes, latte art, and the magic of good lighting
- GIFs and short clips for websites or online delivery
How I Work
I’m hands-on with food styling, lighting, and capturing action - live flames, crispy textures, and gooey drips included. I like to shoot both in Mumbai and around the world - shot in London and Dubai too. I work with restaurants, cafes, bars, QSRs, cloud kitchens, patisseries, and more. If you want food content that’s fresh, natural, and actually sells, I’m your guy.

My Story
Hey, I’m Aman. Mumbai is home, but honestly, my camera’s been everywhere – London, Delhi, wherever a story needs telling. I get a kick out of catching those tiny details, like the swirl of pasta or the sparkle in a diamond ring. Folks say my shots make you wanna eat with your eyes first – and I’m all about that. Got shortlisted for the British Photography Awards once, but what really drives me is working with brands, from food to fashion, and showing their real vibe.
My Work
Commercial Photography & Videography - I shoot food, products, portraits, restaurant vibes, e-commerce, fashion, and jewellery. Editorial product shoots too.
My Style - I mix food styling photography with natural portrait photography. I want every shot to feel real, not forced.
