Packages · How a Melbourne hospitality shoot runs
Every venue's brief is different — but the way we run a shoot day isn't. Three core package shapes, transparent process, hand-confirmed quotes. Pricing scopes by menu size and the channels you're shooting for, not by per-hour billing.

How we price · Honest hospitality
Pricing scopes by menu size, channel and complexity — not by stopwatch. You always get a written quote before the shoot. No hidden retouching fees, no per-channel licence top-ups, no surprise invoices.
Three package shapes · Pick the closest fit
Most venues fit one of these three shapes. We confirm the final price on the call — based on your exact menu size, suburb and channel mix.
01 · The Refresh
Cafés · takeaway · small menus
A short on-location session covering 15–25 of your most-ordered dishes plus a couple of venue moments. The most-booked package — most cafés and takeaway shops fit here.
From $540 · 15 images · half-day
02 · The Full Menu
Restaurants · multi-channel · delivery-led
The complete library shoot — every dish you sell, on every channel. One on-location day delivers Uber Eats, DoorDash, Menulog, Google, website and Instagram-ready assets.
From $1,000 · Volume tier · $10 per image at scale
03 · The Brand Day
New openings · refreshes · campaigns
A full editorial production day for new openings, expansions, refreshes or franchise rollouts. Coordinated with your designer, delivered as a structured asset library.
From $1,800 · Bespoke scope · multi-day on request
All prices indicative ex-GST. Final quote depends on menu size, suburb, access window and channel mix. Most quotes confirmed in under five minutes by phone — no marketing chase.
What every package includes
Every shoot — Refresh, Menu or Brand — includes the same eight things below as standard. No per-channel licence fees, no retouching surprises, no agency markups.
A 15-minute call to lock the brief — menu list, channels, deadlines, suburb.
We come to you. Full lighting, surface and props kit. No studio drop-offs.
Your kitchen plates the food. We light it and frame it. No plastic, no styling tricks.
Square + landscape per dish, sized for Uber Eats, Google, web and Instagram.
Master files plus channel-ready crops in a single shareable folder, named to your menu.
Paid social, OOH, print, EDM, packaging, PR — every owned and earned channel.
Per dish, no questions. If a particular frame doesn't sit right, we re-edit it.
Real conversations, no auto-replies. Quotes confirmed inside one business day.
How a shoot runs · From call to delivery
We handle the production logistics. You handle the plating. Most venues book and shoot within 7–14 days of the first call.
A 5–15 minute call to scope menu, channels, suburb and deadline. Most quotes are confirmed on this call.
We send a written quote the same day with a locked shoot date. You confirm by reply.
We arrive with full lighting and prop kit. Your kitchen plates the food. Usually 4–8 hours on-location.
Edited master files + channel-ready crops delivered in 5–7 business days. One folder, named to your menu.
On the $10-per-image claim · Honest fine print
Our volume tier kicks in at 100+ images from a single venue, minimum spend $1,000. That's where the $10 per-image rate applies — typically full restaurant menu shoots with delivery, dine-in and Google all in one library.
For smaller menus (15–25 images) the rate sits at $30 per image, and the 21–99 range sits at $25 per image. The reason: production time per image goes down as menu size goes up. We pass that saving on directly.
No fine print at the door. The number you're quoted is the number you're invoiced.
