March Food Photoshoot Roundup, Brooklyn and Manhattan

In March, I photographed 16 restaurants located across New York City. The goal was to document each establishment for various delivery platforms, however I always take time to collect additional images beyond what was required for the assignments. These supplemental shots allow me to practice my craft, add to my portfolio, and offer the restaurants more than just the bare minimum. While commissioned work was the primary purpose, I made the most of opportunities to capture extra perspectives on the city's food culture.

Pictured, left to right, top to bottom:

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.
