Anaheim Food Photographer

Resort-area dining, Packing District vendors and neighborhood restaurants — menus, delivery-app photos and reels shot on location in Anaheim.

Orange County is home. I’ve been shooting food here for twenty years, for kitchens that range from a Disneyland dining room to a falafel counter — and none of them want the same light. I bring the lighting, work around live service, and shoot stills and vertical video in the same visit, so your menu, your website and your social all come out of one shoot.

Need a food stylist in Orange County? For restaurant shoots that don’t need a full stylist, I offer touch-up food styling at a reduced rate, with shot design, propping, surfaces and basic props from my own styling kit. When a dish needs to be built or cooked from a recipe, I bring in experienced food stylists I’ve worked with for over 10 years. See food styling →

Food photography in Anaheim

Anaheim feeds more visitors than any city in Orange County, and the restaurants here range from a Disneyland dining room to family-run taquerias on Lincoln Avenue. I have photographed both. I shoot on location across the Anaheim Packing District, Center Street, the Resort District, Anaheim Hills, Platinum Triangle and the Little Arabia corridor on Brookhurst, bringing a full mobile lighting setup and covering menu, delivery-app, website and social formats in one visit.

What I shoot in Anaheim

Restaurant and menu photography, delivery-app photos for DoorDash and Uber Eats, lifestyle and dining-room photography, chef and owner portraits, cocktails and beverages, pastry and dessert, product and packaging, and restaurant video and reels. Work in and around Anaheim includes a Disneyland dining room and Disney campaign work, Chef Cody Storts at Grits in Fullerton, and Orange County clients like Tommy’s Burgers, Daphne’s, Slater’s 50/50, Mizu Sushi and Milk and Cookies.

Areas I cover around Anaheim

Anaheim Packing District, Center Street Promenade, the Anaheim Resort and Harbor Boulevard, Platinum Triangle, Anaheim Hills, Little Arabia on Brookhurst, West Anaheim and neighboring Fullerton, Orange, Garden Grove and Buena Park.

Flat rates start at $495 and include unlimited images with full commercial use.

Tell me how many dishes, where in Anaheim you are and roughly when you need them, and I will come back with a straight number within one business day.

Anaheim food photography questions

How much does a food photographer cost in Anaheim?

My flat rates start at $495 and are the same in Anaheim as everywhere else I shoot in Southern California, with no travel fee. Every rate includes unlimited images with full commercial use, delivered within three business days. Half-day and full-day rates cover a whole menu; hourly is available for smaller jobs. See food photography pricing.

Do you come to my restaurant in Anaheim?

Yes. I shoot on location at your restaurant, bar, bakery or kitchen with a full mobile lighting setup, so there is nothing to move and no studio to book. Shooting in your space is included in every rate and means the photos show your real plates, surfaces and dining room.

Which areas of Anaheim do you cover?

Anaheim Packing District, Center Street Promenade, the Anaheim Resort and Harbor Boulevard, Platinum Triangle, Anaheim Hills, Little Arabia on Brookhurst, West Anaheim and neighboring Fullerton, Orange, Garden Grove and Buena Park. All at the same rate with no travel fee.

Do we have to close the restaurant for the shoot?

No. Most Anaheim shoots happen between lunch and dinner service or on a slow morning, working from a corner table or the bar with a compact lighting footprint. If you would rather shoot when the room is empty, that works too.

Can I use the images on DoorDash, Uber Eats and my website?

Yes. Every image includes full commercial use with no licensing tiers, so the same set works on DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, your website, printed menus, Google Business Profile and social media. I shoot delivery-app framing on the same visit. See menu photography.

Do you shoot restaurant video and reels in Anaheim?

Yes. Restaurant video and vertical reels for Instagram and TikTok are shot across Anaheim and the rest of Orange County, usually on the same day as photography for one discounted rate. See restaurant video production.
