Food & restaurant photography — Seville

It depends on your kitchen's pace, but in a half-day session we usually cover between ten and twenty dishes with quality. The key is coordination: your team plates one after another while I photograph the previous one, so nothing goes cold and we catch each dish at its best moment. If you have a large menu, we plan a logical order —starters, mains, desserts, drinks— so the day flows and we get the maximum number of images possible.

Both, depending on what the venue calls for and the style you're after. Natural light by a window gives a fresh, honest look, very on-trend for food, and I use it whenever the restaurant has it. When the interior is dark, the session is at night or I want full control of highlights and shadows, I set up my own lighting that mimics natural light without hardening the dish. The aim is always for the food to look appetising and true, not artificial.

The photos come with a full commercial-use licence for your restaurant: physical and digital menu, website, Google listing, Instagram and social, delivery platforms like Glovo or Uber Eats, advertising and food press, with no per-use fee and no expiry. They're yours to sell your cooking across every channel. The only caveat is that they're for your business, not to resell to third parties as a stock library.

Not necessarily. The easiest is to shoot outside service hours —mid-morning or between meals— when the kitchen can focus on plating for camera without the pressure of customers and we have the tables free to set up shots. If you want images with the real atmosphere of a full room, we plan a slot during service, capturing discreetly. We agree it around your operation so as not to interfere with business or lose quality on the dishes.
