Food Styling & Photography

I have over 12 years experience working as a food stylist and photographer for some of New Zealand’s most reputable magazines titles such as Cuisine Magazine, Sunday Magazine, Nadia Journal and Life & Leisure as well as food brands including Aoraki Salmon, Barker’s, Egmont Honey, Marcel’s Pancakes and Green Meadow’s Beef.

With an extensive collection of props and backgrounds and a keen eye for detail I produce high-quality, engaging and authentic content for both print media and online platforms.
