Lifestyle and social media photography is such an important part of your marketing plan these days.

Jeni from JAW Design, who I met when working with Rocomamas, asked me to quote on some lifestyle and social media photography for her client Ocean Basket.
We needed to shoot a mix of overhead shots as well as customers interacting with each other and the dishes. The shoot was done at the Menlyn branch in Pretoria and we had such a great space to work with.

From a lighting point of view we needed to keep it as natural as possible which can be a challenge especially as the angles kept changing depending on which side of the table I was shooting at the time.

It was an extremely ambitious schedule and combined with the fact that we did not use professional models, I think we did really well.
It is so cool to see your images on a client's social media feed - a big thanks to Jeni and the client who art directed the shoot and made it run so smoothly!

Here are a few images from the day.
Hmm, I think it's lunchtime...
