My name is Birgit and I'm so happy to welcome you here. I am a Food, Restaurant and Food Product photographer, based near Newbury in West Berkshire, UK, specialising in rural producers.
Everything about food, and the people involved in it fascinates me. As a photographer, I am absorbed in the textures, colours and shape of food, how it can excite the palette and be visually compelling. Light and composition are the backbone of a great image, and editing the finishing touch. I am passionate about capturing your food or product in the best possible way, to tell your story, and invest your customers in your Brand.
I can work from my studio or on location, depending on your needs. I love shooting outdoors to capture your produce at source, just as much as inside a restaurant or cafe, an artisan workshop. This includes chef and staff portraits. Many of my awards have come from capturing the relationship between people and the food they sell, cook or produce. From my kitchen and adjacent studio, I can cook, style and photograph your product to create eyecatching images for your website, blog or social media outlet. *
My work was shortlisted in the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year Award 2022 (Clare Aho Award), 2023 (Politics of Food), and 2024 (Food for Sale) categories as well as the Eat Capture Share (Charlie Palmer category) and Foodartproject Overall Challenge winner March 23 and October 24. Magazine contributions include Food Connects Us Magazine, Creative by Nature Journal, and Out&About Magazine.
