Food photography and styling

What you can expect

• Brand-aligned visuals: clean, cohesive photography designed around your product, story, and goals. These images work hard across your website, packaging, press features, ads, and social media.
• Styled to match your message: from bold and modern to warm and rustic, I adapt the styling to suit your identity, not a generic trend.
• Ready-to-use content: every project is delivered fully edited and ready for use, so you’re not stuck resizing, retouching, or reworking files.

Types of photography I offer

• Product photography: clean shots of your product on plain or branded backgrounds — perfect for websites, e-commerce, press kits, and packaging.
• Lifestyle photography: images that show your product in real-life moments: on the table, in someone’s hand, being poured or stirred. These help people imagine your product in their everyday lives.
• Food photography & food styling: styled food and recipe-based photography that highlights texture, colour, and taste. Ideal for brands that sell ingredients, supplements, or ready-to-eat products — or professionals who share recipes with their audience.
• Recipe imagery: if you already have a recipe (or I’ve developed one for you), I can bring it to life visually. Each shot is styled and composed to match the dish and your brand.

How it works (even if you’re not based in Ireland)

Most of the photography and styling work I do is handled remotely. Whether you’re a product-based brand or a wellness professional, the process is simple and flexible:

1. We plan the shoot: you share the details — your goals, brand guidelines, and the kind of content you need. I’ll put together a clear plan with image ideas and styling direction so we’re aligned before the shoot begins.
2. Product or ingredients? I’ll let you know what’s needed: If you’re promoting a physical product — like a food item, supplement, or anything with packaging — you’ll send it to my studio in Ireland. If the focus is on a recipe without a specific branded product, I’ll shop for the ingredients and prepare it from scratch. Either way, I’ll handle the cooking, styling, and photography based on what best suits your content needs.
3. I take care of the rest: once everything’s prepped, I style, shoot, and edit your images. You’ll receive a folder of ready-to-use photos, formatted and optimised for your chosen platforms.

If you’re local or planning an in-person shoot, I also offer on-location sessions in Dublin and surrounding areas.

Who this is for

Food photography and styling is a good fit for you if:

• You run a food or beverage brand and want to show your product in use in a way that feels real, inspiring, and easy to connect with.
• You’re a nutritionist, health coach, or wellness professional looking for images that bring your recommendations to life and make your content more relatable.
• You’re a blogger or content creator who wants to consistently share original recipes with visuals that feel true to your voice.
• You’re a small business owner who’s ready to invest in thoughtful, strategic content that reflects the quality of what you offer.

This service helps you stop relying on stock photos or last-minute phone snaps and start sharing visuals that actually support your goals.

What people are saying

The photos I create make a difference in how clients show up online and how their audience responds. Here’s what clients have said:

This was our first time working with a photographer and I couldn’t be happier. I was honestly nervous about not being there for the shoot, but the process was clear, communication was great, and the final images felt spot-on for our brand. Chiara’s creative direction made the whole thing feel easy. — Ryan

I’ve had several people ask me who took the photos. Some even messaged to say they’re now actually motivated to try the recipes. I guess the presentation really does make a difference. — Anne

The new mood board is perfect — exactly what I was trying to communicate. It’s such a relief to work with someone who just gets it. — Katherine

Love your work Chiara and your help in bringing our brand to life! — Gillian
