Food Photography
The Intention.
Food Photography is capturing the essence of a dish - taste, texture, smell, and intention. Through an editorial lens, and purpose-driven imagery, a full suite of artful images will be created that dives deep to encapsulate your entire story. So, you can share the why and the processes behind your brand, with your community, with clarity, and conviction.
Why Work with Me?
Integrity, creativity, and a genuine respect for collaboration is what sets me apart. I love working with other creatives, bouncing around ideas to see how deep we can go with the storytelling. “Fortune favors the bold” and I honestly feel like bigger the better when it comes to artistic expression. If you want content that stands out, is non-conventional, and blurs the lines of art with marketing - than you’ve find your gal!

FAQs
I’m looking for something specific; do you do custom jobs?
1
Absolutely. My packages are more just a starter pack to show you what a job can entail. However, many clients need more than just food photography, they may need lifestyle shots with talent, headshots, documentary shots of staff during service, even event photography. If you have a photography project that doesn’t fit the mold, contact me for a custom quote.
How do I get started?
2
Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule a call—I’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions along the way.
Do I need to book a discovery call with you?
3
I believe discovery calls are pivotal to working out what your goals, vision, needs, and concerns are when considering a shoot. In real time, you and I are able to brainstorm ideas, talk through your options, have your questions answered, and get a vibe to whether you would like to work with me. They take about 20mins, are non-pushy. and very casual.
How can I contact you?

You can reach me anytime via my contact page or email hello@dainamariephotography.com. I aim to respond quickly—usually within one business day.
