Food photographer · Built for hospitality

Food photographer for restaurants.
Images that make guests book.

We come to you and photograph your dishes, your rooms and your team. You get 30 to 80 finished images per shoot, in every platform format, ready for Google Business, your menu, delivery platforms and social media.

Three seconds decide whether guests click on your image or scroll past. Phone snapshots lose that moment almost every time.

The reality

Why weak food photos cost you guests every day.

Guests decide online. One quick look at the photos is enough. Someone who sees a dull image scrolls on. Someone who sees an appetising one clicks, books, arrives.

01

Phone photos snatched between two services

Shot in a hurry, harsh ceiling LEDs, a smear on the rim of the plate. On Google Business and delivery platforms that loses you guests who scroll past without a single click.

02

No consistent visual style

Warm here, cold there, over-filtered somewhere else. Anyone scrolling your Instagram feed sees no through line. Trust does not grow out of that.

03

Images that hold up in every format on every platform

Landscape for the website, square for Instagram, vertical for Reels. Squeeze one format into all of them and you lose impact on every platform.

The uncomfortable truth

Your competitors are already posting professional content. Shoot on a smartphone and you do not stand out neutrally, you stand out below them.

The problem is not your kitchen. It is the picture of it in your guests’ feed.

What helps

  • Imagery that lands in three seconds.
  • A look that stays recognisable across every platform.
  • Delivery in five formats, so you never have to re-crop.

What you get

What a professional food photographer actually delivers.

01

Images that land in three seconds

On Instagram, Google and delivery platforms, attention is won or lost in the first few seconds. We produce images with one clear main angle, soft light and a clean visual style that win exactly those seconds.

02

Consistency across every channel

Your images follow one signature: visual style, colour feel, composition grid. That is how a recognisable brand is built, from Google Business through Instagram to the printed menu.

03

Delivered ready for every platform

You get every shot exported in the five most important formats, so you never have to re-crop. Landscape for the website, square for the feed, vertical for Reels and Stories, Pinterest format for seasonal plans, and a menu crop with no hard shadows.

How we work

Four steps from the first call to a finished set of images.

Clear steps, no surprises. We work in a way that leaves your day-to-day service running.

  1. 1
    Step 1

    Briefing and stocktake

    In a 10 to 30 minute first call we talk about your venue, your guests, your brand. You show us the images you already have. We tell you honestly what works and what does not.

    • Which dishes carry your revenue?
    • Which platforms do you want to serve?
    • What does the imagery of your strongest competitors look like?
  2. 2
    Step 2

    Agreeing the shot list and the look

    We deliver a concrete shot list with quantities, style direction and main angles, matched to your seasonal menu and your platforms. You see up front what you are getting.

  3. 3
    Step 3

    The shoot on site, without pausing service

    We arrive with our own kit, reflectors and diffusers. We shoot during service or between the rushes. Four to eight hours on site, depending on scope.

    • 30 to 80 finished images per day
    • Food styling included
    • Daylight plus mobile LED, depending on the room
  4. 4
    Step 4

    Editing and delivery

    Every shot is retouched individually, the look is calibrated to your brand and exported in five platform formats. Delivered within ten working days as a cloud folder.

Step 1 starts with a 10 to 30 minute first call. Free, without obligation, and not a sales pitch.

Why vollbelegt.

What sets us apart from other food photographers.

Six points where you will notice that we understand hospitality. No marketing slogans, just ways of working that fit your day-to-day service.

  • 01

    Hospitality only

    We photograph hospitality and nothing else. Restaurants, cafés, bars, bakeries. No weddings, no baby portraits, no industrial reportage.

  • 02

    Anywhere in Germany, no travel costs

    You pay for the shoot, not the kilometres. Partner locations in Paris and Vienna.

  • 03

    Three new clients a month, maximum

    Quality over quantity. When we come to you, we arrive prepared and focused.

  • 04

    Zero disruption to service

    We shoot while you cook and serve. You barely notice us. We know the pressure from experience.

  • 05

    Editing as standard

    Colour calibration, retouching, the look, five formats per shot. All included in the price, no haggling per image.

  • 06

    Usage rights without small print

    You get the images for unlimited use in your own channels. Print, web, social, advertising. Set out clearly in the quote.
