How it works · Artur Begel, food photographer Dubai

01

Tell us who you are

Your name, company, phone and email. Please tell us who decides on the shoot day. One person is enough.

02

What are the photos for?

Pick one or more. Each one needs a different kind of photo, so this changes the plan.

Delivery apps have strict rules. Usually a clean background, no hands, no text and no collage. We shoot to their rules, so your photos are not rejected.

03

Your place

Café, restaurant, bar, hotel, cloud kitchen or catering. Send us your Instagram and website. We look at your style before we plan the shoot.

04

Food stylist: yes or no?

A food stylist prepares and places every dish for the camera. Colours, shapes and textures look their best, and each plate looks fresh in every shot.

With a stylist

Best for menus, ads and campaigns. Every detail is controlled.

Without a stylist

Best for social media and quick menu updates. Your chef plates the dishes and we help on set.

05

Dishes and volume

Send the list of dishes and drinks. For reels, tell us how many you need. We tell you if it fits a half day, up to 4 hours, or a full day, up to 8 hours.

06

Light and mood

Light changes the feeling of the same dish. These are the five we use most. Pick one, or send us three photos you like and we will match them.

07

People in the photos

If guests, staff or chefs will be in the photos, please get their consent before the shoot. We can send a simple release form. People without consent will be cropped out or blurred.

08

Rights: two options

Both options come with the same photos and the same work. Only the use and the price are different.

Full rights

Use the photos anywhere: ads, delivery apps, print, billboards, press. Worldwide, no end date.

Standard price · best for hotels and groups

Limited

12 months on your own channels: website, social media, menus and your own delivery listings.

You can extend for another year or upgrade to full rights later.

25% less on the photography fee

Full terms: usage rights.

09

Date and budget

Tell us your shoot date and when you need the final photos. Pick what fits: half day, full day, several days or a monthly plan.

If you have a budget limit, please tell us. We will suggest the best plan for it.

10

On the day

Kitchen ready, dishes in the order we agreed. A table near a window if possible. One person on site who can say yes.
