FAQ · THE COMMON QUESTIONS

Answers, before you ask.

How much does restaurant food photography cost in NYC?
One-off content shoots come in three tiers, no retainer required: The Taste (from $765, 2–3 hour session, up to 25 images), The Menu Shoot (from $1,425, 6-hour shoot, up to 45 images), and The Full Spread (from $1,835, full day with a professional food stylist and short-form video, up to 60 images). Add a food stylist to the lower tiers for $800. Launch campaigns and monthly retainers are quoted after a quick call. Download the pricing guide above or book a call for exact numbers.
How much does product photography cost?
Product and ecommerce photography uses the same transparent day rates, from $765 for a focused session up to $1,835 for a full production day, and for high-volume ecommerce or Amazon catalogs we also quote per-image so you only pay for the shots you use. See our product photography page for specs and details.
What does a video production day cost?
Video is priced by the production day or by the finished deliverable. A content-volume day banks a month of social videos in one shoot; a single commercial spot is scoped on its own. Tell us the goal on our video production page and we'll quote it to scope.
How does licensing and usage pricing work?
Every shoot includes usage for the channels you name up front, website, organic social and menus are standard. Broader usage (paid ads, out-of-home, packaging, national campaigns) is licensed for a defined term and scope, priced transparently alongside the shoot, so you always know what you can run, where and for how long. More on our commercial photography page.
Do you shoot on location at my restaurant?
Yes. We bring the lighting and styling to you and shoot on location across NYC, New Jersey and Philadelphia, so your food is photographed fresh from your own kitchen, exactly as it's served.
How fast is turnaround?
Selects are typically delivered within 48 hours, with the full retouched, platform-ready library shortly after. Launch campaigns run on an agreed timeline tied to your opening date.
Can you optimize my DoorDash, UberEats and Grubhub listings?
Yes, it's one of our highest-ROI services. We shoot to each platform's spec, rebuild your item imagery, and restructure the menu so your best-sellers surface first.
What areas do you serve?
Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, The Bronx, Long Island, New Jersey, Philadelphia and Connecticut.
