Questions
How much does menu design and food photography cost?
It depends on how many dishes need shooting, how many pages the menu runs to, and whether you want extras like a BTS reel or QR menu content. Send us your current menu and we’ll reply with an itemised quote, line by line.
How many dishes can you photograph in a day?
A full shoot day delivers 40 edited images. Signature dishes often get more than one angle, so we plan the shot list with your chef first and tell you up front how many days you need.
Do you shoot at our restaurant or in a studio?
At your venue. Your kitchen cooks the food the way guests get it, and we shoot it on your plates and tables so the menu matches the room. We bring the lighting and styling kit.
Can you design Thai and English menus?
Yes. Most of our menus are bilingual, and our hotel menus run in Thai, English and Chinese. Each language gets its own typeface so it reads properly.
Do you print menus?
We don’t print ourselves. We hand over print-ready files and recommend print houses we trust, so you get the paper, finish and price that suit your menu. If you already have a printer you like, the files work for them too.
Can you film a behind-the-scenes reel?
Yes. We can film the shoot and cut a short BTS reel for Instagram and TikTok, plus short videos and photos for your QR menu.
What do we need to send you?
Your dish list with names, descriptions and prices in every language you want on the menu, plus your logo and any brand guidelines. We take it from there.
Can you take photos for Grab and LINE MAN?
Yes. Photos from the same shoot are cropped and sized for Grab, LINE MAN, ShopeeFood and QR menus, so delivery orders look like the dining room.
Do you work outside Bangkok?
Yes. We shoot in Phuket, Chiang Mai, Pattaya, Hua Hin, Koh Samui, Krabi and anywhere else in Thailand.
Can you redesign our menu with photos we already have?
Yes. We can redesign around your existing photos, shoot only the missing dishes, or reshoot the lot if the photos are holding the menu back.
