✦ Miami, Florida
Food photographer in Miami — from $450
A well-shot plate sells twice: on the menu, and on the phone of someone who doesn’t yet know they are having dinner with you. We shoot food in Miami for restaurants, bars and brands, and deliver the work ready to publish.
What a session covers
Plates and cocktails on the table, at the pass or at the bar, using the room’s light when it works and our own when it doesn’t. The same day gives you the stills for menu and delivery apps, and the vertical motion for Instagram and TikTok. Splitting those into two days is charging you twice for one setup.
Shooting without closing the restaurant
We shoot between services or in the morning, with the kitchen working. We don’t ask for an empty room or build a set that takes two hours to rig. A cook plates, we shoot, the plate goes out or back to the kitchen. A six-hour day yields twenty to thirty plates.
What you get, and when
Retouched stills in horizontal, vertical and square, because every platform wants something different. Video cut and color-graded, without music — you pick that per campaign. Five business days; if you need something for the weekend, say so before the shoot and it ships sooner.
✦ Prices
Price moves with how many pieces you need and whether we bring lighting, not with the clock. Tell us what you have in mind and you get the exact number in the same conversation.
2026 prices in US dollars, before tax. They do not include travel outside Miami-Dade County, talent, filming permits or music licensing. The final figure is confirmed in writing before the shoot.

✦ Questions
Do we need a food stylist?
For menu and social, no. The cook plates the way they plate in service, and that is exactly what should be shown. Styling earns its keep in packaging or print campaigns, and we say so upfront.
Do you work in Spanish?
Yes. The crew is bilingual and both versions of the content are written from scratch, not translated.
Can you cover several locations in one day?
If they are close, yes, and it costs less than two separate days. Depends on the addresses.
