About Food & Product Photography
What I Do
I’m Anshita, and I shoot food and products for brands that want more than just pretty pictures. I care about making visuals that actually help your business - not just fill up your Instagram grid. My photos and videos are about showing off your story, not just the surface.
How I Work
I get that you’ve got seconds to grab attention. My approach mixes strategy with creativity, so your content isn’t just nice to look at - it’s scroll-stopping food photography that gets people to pause and actually care. I plan every shoot with your brand’s vibe in mind, aiming for images that convert followers into real customers.
For Restaurants, Cafes & Kitchens
- Restaurant menu photography that makes your dishes look irresistible - think cheese pulls, glossy desserts, cocktails that pop.
- Menu and listing shots for Swiggy, Zomato, and your own menu - clear, tempting, and optimized for more orders.
- Vibe shots: interiors, decor, the mood that makes your place special.
- Behind-the-scenes reels and photos - people love seeing the kitchen action.
For Packaged Food & Product Brands
- E-commerce product images that are clean, crisp, and ready for your online store.
- Lifestyle product shots - your product styled in real-life scenes, festive setups, or with fresh ingredients.
- Social media campaign visuals - flatlays and images that tell your brand’s story, not just fill space.

My Story
Hey, I’m Anshita. My days are a blend of chasing light, running a business, and wrangling my little Gaia. Motherhood flipped my whole script in 2025. Now, I celebrate small wins and don’t sweat the calendar. First 10k run? That was about healing, not just sweating. I’m building slow, deep, and honest. Not perfect—just real. If you see me with a coffee and my camera, that’s me living my best messy life.
My Work
What I shoot - Food photography, product shots, newborn & family portraits, social media reels, and BTS for brands.
How I work - I chase texture first, especially with desserts. Every swirl and drip gets its own light. Movement and layers make my frames feel alive, not stiff.
Content with impact - My visuals grab attention in 3 seconds flat. It’s not just pretty pictures—it’s food texture photography that seduces.
Newborn & family moments - Since Gaia, I started newborn lifestyle portraits and family moments photography. I freeze the tiny, real stuff.
Brand storytelling - I co-run a social media agency, creating brand reels and content that actually feels like you.
