Food & brand photography on the Costa del Sol.

Twenty years making things look good on a plate. Now I do it with a camera.

Food photography for restaurants that want their dishes to look as good as they taste, and brand photos for the people behind local businesses. Shot around San Pedro, Marbella and Estepona.

I spent 20 years in professional kitchens, so I know when a plate is ready, how long it will hold, and how to stay out of the way during service. How a restaurant shoot works.

About

I'm Jai. For more than twenty years, I was a chef.

I worked at Claridge's, cooked alongside Marcus Wareing and Gordon Ramsay in London, and travelled the world as a private chef for two royal families. I spent ten years in Australia, ran a meal-prep business in Melbourne, and ended up on the Costa del Sol.

Somewhere along the way I realised I cared as much about how things looked as how they tasted. Plating is composition and light, and the camera was the next obvious step.

Now I photograph the people and places that make this coast work. Restaurants get someone who understands a kitchen. Everyone else gets someone who knows how to make a nervous person relax in front of a lens, because I've been that person too.
