Food & Cocktail photography for Valhalla Bar, located in the recently refurbished Olderfleet building on Collins St, Melbourne CBD.
Prior to their launch in 2020, Valhalla’s team commissioned me to create a series of images of their delicious cocktail menu. Each signature cocktail features locally sourced spirits and native ingredients which they wanted to communicate through the images. Working with a stylist we created a unique scene for each cocktail using the tasting notes and ingredients as well as a variety of props to create an editorial feel. Since the interiors have nordic theme and is very dark and moody it was important that the photography reflected this.
Shorty after the shoot we returned to shoot the newly launched bar snack menu in the same style as the cocktails.
