Featured Food Photography and Brand Films
A curated look into the stories we have built, the brands we have helped grow, and the technical craft behind every frame.
This is what happens when you hire us to shoot your signature dishes. We bring the fire, smoke, and action to create high-energy video content for brands like Ministry of Naan, focusing on the sizzle of the tikka and the rich layers of a biryani to make viewers feel the heat.
For Chef Amninder Sandhu's Kikli, we created a cinematic brand film exploring her vision. We captured her story, the restaurant's authentic Punjabi soul, and the beauty of forgotten cooking techniques like the 'hara', showing how we translate a founder's passion into a powerful narrative.
A conceptual shoot for Hundo Pizza, where we set their pizzas ablaze to match their "hell" theme. This kind of dramatic, high-concept food photography is designed to stop the scroll and create a memorable brand identity that goes beyond just the product.
Capturing the perfect "drool-worthy" moment for The Belgian Waffle Co. This shot focuses on the texture of the waffle and the rich, glossy finesse of the dripping chocolate, a classic food photography technique we use to trigger cravings and drive sales.
Creating atmosphere for a smoked cocktail at Amelia. We used dramatic lighting against a rich, red velvet background to highlight the billow of smoke, turning a simple drink into a theatrical experience and an unforgettable visual.
A fast-paced social media video showcasing the art of handmade pasta at Pomodoro Pasta Bar. From rolling the dough to the final plating, this content is crafted to be quick, engaging, and perfect for platforms like Instagram Reels, highlighting the craft behind the dish.
An example of our creative process for The Belgian Waffle Co, where we make the key ingredient fly. By capturing the pistachios mid-air as they sprinkle onto the waffle, we add a sense of action and dynamism, making the still image feel alive.
About this collection
You do not see the hours of prep or the failed takes in these images, but that is where the real work happens. Whether it is setting a pizza on fire to capture a specific brand identity or spending an entire day interviewing a chef to uncover the soul of their restaurant, we treat every frame as a strategic business asset rather than just a pretty picture.
Building Assets, Not Just Images
When we look at a project, we aren't asking how to make it look 'nice.' We ask how it functions in your business ecosystem. In an economy dominated by short-form video and delivery app menus, your visuals are often the first, and only, interaction a potential customer has with your brand.
Our Creative Approach
We break down our featured work into two distinct buckets:
- Cinematic Brand Storytelling: We sit down with founders and chefs to document the 'why.' Films like our work for Kikli aren't about selling a dish; they are about selling the feeling of the space. We use multi-cam setups and documentary-style interviews to make your brand human.
- High-Impact Commercial Work: For product-focused assets, we use macro lenses and high-speed lighting to freeze action. You see this in our work for The Belgian Waffle Co., where we capture the precise moment chocolate drizzles or nuts hit a surface. This technique creates a physical response, a 'drool-worthy' moment that directly impacts conversion rates.
How We Work
Creativity is messy, but execution shouldn't be. Our studio in Lower Parel is built on the belief that talent is common, but consistency is rare. We handle the entire pipeline: from conceptualizing themes—like the hell-themed shoot for Hundo Pizza—to post-production and color grading.
We have helped over 1,000 brands across Mumbai find their visual voice. If you are looking for content that is designed to perform, not just to exist, let's look at your brand's specific needs.
Lost & Hungry Studios
I started with a single camera in 2015 and a lot of frustration about being the weakest person in the room. I have built this studio by putting in the reps, day after day, until we could tell stories that actually stop the scroll. I am here to help your brand do the same.
