This February I had the pleasure of photographing an 22 restaurants across New York City, each shoot providing a unique glimpse into the city's diverse culinary landscape. While these sessions were primarily commissioned for delivery platforms, I always take the opportunity to capture additional shots outside of what is just required by the brief.

Pictured, left to right, top to bottom:
1. Cafe Hatou, Midtown Manhattan
2. Bread and Spread, DUMBO Brooklyn
3. Comodo, Rose Hill Manhattan
4. La Voglia, Upper East Side Manhattan
5. Rogue Panda, DUMBO Brooklyn
6. Yakiniku Futago, Flatiron Manhattan

Here are some of my favorite images from this shoot (click/tap to view full size and un-cropped):

All images in this blog post were shot on a Nikon D850 using a 24-85mm zoom lens, and all individually post-processed in Adobe Lightroom using custom-built presets.
