“I had a clear vision for this shoot: food photography
is always about the details, but I wanted more movement and life injected into our images. So, we introduced hand models into the mix, bringing a sense of energy and enjoyment to every dish. It wasn’t just about how the food looked on the plate, but how it feels to experience it.” To enhance the visuals, the team leaned into colour
drenching as a main creative direction. T ree bespoke backgrounds were created in the brand pantones – deep navy, rich merlot, and a softer salt-speckled contrast. Models wore navy and merlot tones, with accents of fresh aqua nails (a playful nod to the brand colours). “T e combination of these bold, moody hues against our
food made each dish truly pop,” said Anna. “T e colours framed the plates perfectly while letting the food remain the star of the show. We were fortunate to be able borrow from Wren Ark. Kate, from Wren Ark, curated a stunning selection of tableware from her hire collection, each piece carefully chosen to complement our dishes without overpowering them. T ey gave Giles, our head chef, the perfect canvas to plate everything with his usual fl air and precision.” After a full-on day of stills and fi lm being captured
simultaneously the result was worth every second. A short fi lm was produced to capture a dynamic range, full of personality, and completely mouth-watering. Anna added: “It’s the kind of video that makes you stop
scrolling, lean in, and (hopefully) crave a bite of what you see. “We’re thrilled with the outcome. The colours, the
styling, the creativity, and, of course, the food – everything came together exactly as we imagined. We think it really does tickle the taste buds. “And we found the perfect track to match the mood – so watch it with the sound on!”
