About Food & Prop Styling
We aren't just about making food look good for the camera. For us, every frame should hit you with nostalgia or curiosity, like that first whiff of Nani ki kairi ki chutney (Grandma’s raw mango chutney) or the vibe of food cooked on a chulha (clay stove). Our food styling is full of stories and real memories.
What We Actually Do
- We style food and props for restaurants, cloud kitchens, bakeries, food brands, and even pet food.
- We shoot for everything from social media to menus to delivery apps.
- The goal? Make your food look as irresistible as it tastes.
Visual Storytelling, Real Feels
- Moody food photography with deep shadows, perfect for indulgent desserts or pasta.
- Rustic food props like brass thalis (platters) and barnis (pickle jars) for regional Indian and comfort foods.
- Minimalist food flatlays for modern, clean brands.
- Festive food setup for celebrations, from Holi brunches to Christmas spreads.
Props & Details
- We’ve got a prop stash with everything from traditional Indian crockery to simple glassware and fresh flowers.
- Details matter - we work with chefs to get plating and composition just right.
Our Process
You tell us your vision, we do the rest. From concept to execution, we handle all the styling and shoot details, making sure your brand’s personality comes through in every shot.

My Story
Food’s never just food for us. It’s a whiff of summer at Nani’s, Alphonso mangoes, kairi, kitchen songs. We chase that feeling in every project. Even when we travel, like that Ratnagiri trip, eating Bhakri and Thecha by the chulha, real Maharashtrian style. Those honest moments shape how we style – not what’s trendy, but what feels true. That’s the heart behind our setups.
