Plated Portrait brings a portrait-driven approach to food photography — capturing dishes with the same intention, attention to detail, and storytelling typically reserved for people.
The work began in portrait photography, where understanding light, composition, and emotion was essential to creating images that felt natural and engaging. That foundation became the backbone of Plated Portrait’s visual style and continues to shape every shoot.
Over time, that same approach evolved into food photography. Food, much like people, has its own personality — texture, movement, and presence. Capturing it isn’t just about making it look good, but about making it feel inviting and real. That perspective led naturally into culinary storytelling.
Today, Plated Portrait specializes in mobile food photography services for restaurants. All shoots are done on-location, working directly within restaurant spaces to create imagery that reflects the true dining experience. The focus is on producing visuals that translate seamlessly across menus, websites, and social media — helping restaurants present their food with consistency and intention.
Based in Tampa, Florida, Plated Portrait works with restaurants, chefs, and food-focused brands that value professional imagery and understand the importance of strong visual identity in today’s digital landscape.
