Skills: Creative Direction, Visual Identity, Brand Redesign

Food photography had become predictable—styled perfection distant from how people actually cook. Working with top photographers and illustrators, we developed an approach capturing food in its natural state—messy, beautiful, alive. Strong creative direction met clear visual storytelling, transforming complex culinary content into accessible narratives. Every image served the story, not styling.

The result: a fresh editorial aesthetic that influenced food photography industry-wide, drove circulation growth, and earned awards for reinventing how food looks on the page.
