p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Looking for an professional food photographer Indianapolis


My daughter's family raises wagyu cattle and are rapidly approaching the point where sale of their meat can be a sustainable business. One very important aspect of the business is to create advertising frames for their product. I'm looking for an experienced food photographer in the greater Indianapolis area that has successfully worked with fresh raw meat. They should have the necessary equipment, backdrops and staging pieces to create high end frames that emphasize richness & appeal. Obviously a portfolio to show their accomplished efforts for review would be appreciated.

Matt

Try searching at Wonderful Machine for starters. You can search by region.

Look for a food photographer that has a FULL kitchen in their studio. Not in their house but in a stand-alone studio.
That means they're real and are serious food photographers.
Also make sure they are working with a food stylist. Real pros don't touch the food, they only have the kitchens!
Good luck, John

I know two “real and serious” food photographers who sometimes work out of their home kitchens. The only important metric is what the work looks like. How they get there is irrelevant.

I've been shooting for large Restaurant Groups for two decades and got rid of my studio long ago. Most of my shoots are done at the clients location whether it's a Test Kitchen, Boardroom, Conference Room or rented location. If the Food Stylist has the right tools and ingredients, she can execute the recipes to a high standard. A studio is a great luxury but hardly necessary these days and I find that clients prefer you to come to them. Of course, your mileage may vary.

Don't know if you can work with someone in Cincinnati, but Terry Campbell is the best at this.

He has literally "written the book" on the subject of food photography:

Have you looked in the Chicago market? Chicago has long been known for it’s high end food photographers.
