About this work

Food Photographer Melbourne

Atmospheric food and drink photography for restaurants, hotels, wineries and premium food brands, created in the studio or on location across Melbourne and Victoria.

Savour & Grace was awarded Silver in Advertising: Food & Beverage at the 2026 PX3 Paris Photo Awards.

I work with chefs, venues, wineries and agencies on menus, campaigns, packaging and editorial projects. My background in still life shapes the way I photograph food: through the quiet relationship between light, texture and material. Recent work includes launch imagery for Lumen One and opening imagery for The Florence.

Selected clients

Brown Brothers Wines, The Ritz-Carlton Melbourne’s Atria, Bacash, Yarra Valley Dairy and Fonterra.

What I photograph

Menus and seasonal campaigns for restaurants and venues
Food and beverage brand campaigns
Packaging, hero images and detail sets
Wine, spirits, cocktails and glassware
Editorial and cookbooks
Image libraries for websites and social channels

How a shoot works

Before the shoot, we work through the brief, shot list, schedule and any surfaces, props or styling required.

On the day, I establish the lighting and work through the hero angles and supporting variations.

Afterwards, you can choose the selects or leave the edit to me. Colour and retouching are carefully matched across the series, with final files supplied for web and print.

FAQ

How much does food photography cost in Melbourne?

Every shoot is different. The quote will reflect the number of dishes or products, styling and crew requirements, and how the finished images will be used. Send me an approximate shot count and intended usage, and I’ll prepare a quote.

Do you work with restaurants and agencies?

Yes. I work directly with chefs and venues, as well as alongside producers, stylists and agency teams.

Can you shoot light and bright as well as dark and moody?

Yes. The lighting and visual approach are tailored to the brand, subject and brief.

What should we prepare before the shoot?

A preliminary shot list, confirmed serveware and a clear idea of where the images will appear are useful starting points. I can also provide a preparation checklist.

How long does delivery take?

Proofs are generally ready within a few days. Final delivery depends on the number of images and the level of retouching required. Rush delivery can be arranged for launches and time-sensitive campaigns.

Do you offer food styling?

Yes. I work with a great team of stylists, and can also work with your existing team.
