Images That Tell Your Food’s Story // Melbourne Food Photographer

I believe the best food photography does more than just show a dish; it makes you feel something. It captures the steam rising just so, the rich texture of a sauce, or the vibrant colour of a fresh ingredient in a way that tells a story and makes your mouth water.

My journey started in fine art, and I bring that painter’s eye to every commercial project. For over 15 years, I’ve worked with Melbourne’s best restaurants, wineries, and food brands to find that perfect balance between art and appetite. It’s about creating images that are not only beautiful and composed but that also connect with people and serve a real purpose for your brand.

I love the collaborative process—whether we’re styling a cookbook, shooting a campaign for a new product, or capturing the unique atmosphere of a restaurant. I’m proud of the work I’ve done for clients like Lui Bar, the Ritz Carlton Melbourne, and Brown Brothers Wines.


About Hannah Caldwell — Food Photographer Melbourne

I’m a Melbourne-based food photographer with a background in fine art and a love for capturing the beauty in food’s smallest details. For me, food photography is about more than creating something that looks good—it’s about evoking a feeling.

Whether I’m photographing a chef’s signature dish, a new product, or a quiet moment in the kitchen, I aim to create images that feel natural, considered, and full of life. My work blends an artistic eye with commercial purpose, helping brands, restaurants, and producers tell their stories with warmth and authenticity.

If you’re looking for food photography in Melbourne that captures both flavour and atmosphere, I’d love to work with you.
