Photography
Looking for a photographer to level up your marketing/socials/life? You’ve come to the right place. 😎
When you get caught up in the day to day of running your venue, marketing can fall to the wayside.
But without a polished and eye-catching first impression, potential customers will scroll past, be turned off, or choose to eat elsewhere.
Churning through expensive agencies results in inconsistency, and chasing virality can make you lose the essence of what makes you authentic.
A reliable bank of high quality, mouth-watering photography will cut through the online noise and show your customers what your venue represents at a glance.
Hospo Businesses deserve better than ‘good enough’ photos.

Make your food impossible to scroll past
As a business owner, I know what it’s like to have to wear all the hats.
Break up with poorly lit phone pics and AI flyers - a professional library of beautifully styled food and venue photos will properly capture your business’ personality and point of difference
Hiya! 👋 I’m Mel (or Melanie if you’re feeling fancy)
I'm a photographer specialising within Melbourne's vibrant hospitality industry.
I love colour (as you can see), am a big musical fan (Phantom of the Opera is my fave) and am somewhat of an expert on early Simpsons episodes (I started watching at 5 y/o).
As a food and lifestyle photographer, I help cafes, bars and restaurants to attract more customers through eye-catching and mouth-watering images. From cheeseburgers to caviar, I'll have your food and venue looking its very best and your potential clientele feeling very hungry.
Pop over an enquiry via my contact form or email, I'd love to work together!

At the moment, I offer still photography and stop-motion gifs (check out my work) to give potential customers a view of your business at the quick glance they often take when deciding where to dine out.
Video can be a part of your full social strategy, but without a baseline of high quality images for your marketing, immediate impressions can be lost.
