It is challenging to estimate the exact time required for a session, as it depends on many factors, such as the visual quality desired and the complexity of the dishes. For instance, there have been occasions when I've spent over 4 hours photographing just 5 demanding dishes. This is because finding the perfect angle, adjusting the right lighting, and achieving the desired artistic expression take time and care.

For this reason, it is difficult to predict how long it might take to photograph 30 dishes. Additionally, I don't recommend photographing more than 15 dishes in a single session. It's important to remember that the process is not just about taking pictures; it also involves preparing the dishes, which can be either quick or slow depending on the situation.

This work isn't simply "point and shoot" like using a mobile phone. From setting up the equipment—which can take around 45 minutes—to making the necessary technical and artistic adjustments for each shot, every detail is crucial to ensure a professional, high-quality result.

My approach always prioritizes visual quality because I know that well-executed images are an investment that will showcase the best of your cuisine.

I deliver photos in the format and adapted to the platform you need. I work with cameras over 61 MP, and for more advanced projects, I use medium format cameras with resolutions exceeding 100 MP. These cameras produce extremely high-quality files, but they are also very large, making them unsuitable for direct upload to a website as they would significantly slow down loading times.

During post-production, I optimize each file to perfectly suit the platform where your gastronomic products will be displayed. Whether it's for social media, food delivery platforms, websites, or printed materials, I ensure that the images not only maintain their visual quality but also meet specific technical requirements, guaranteeing both attractive design and efficient functionality.

To achieve the best results in your photo session, it's important to consider the following:

• No customers present: I recommend scheduling the session during times when the restaurant is not serving customers. This allows for a calm environment and ensures enough time can be dedicated to each dish without interruptions.
• Collaboration: It's crucial to have the restaurant staff available to prepare the dishes and provide logistical support during the session. Good coordination ensures everything flows efficiently.
• Workspaces: Arrange for well-lit areas or spaces where light can be controlled to ensure high-quality shots. If possible, designate an additional space for setting up the photography equipment.
• Estimated time: The session's duration will depend on the number of dishes and spaces to be photographed. Keep in mind that each shot requires specific adjustments to highlight the details of every dish.
• Point of contact: It's advisable to assign someone from the restaurant as the coordinator during the session. This person will facilitate communication, address any questions, and assist with logistical needs.
