7 photosCase Study
Blades is a traditional Italian restaurant in London. The kitchen needed a complete photographic overhaul — every dish, one consistent visual identity.
The Brief
Photograph the full menu with one warm visual language, consistent across dozens of dishes and ready for printed menus, digital ordering and promotional use.
The Challenge
A full menu in one production window, with rustic Italian plating and very different palettes between antipasti, pasta and desserts — all shot to a single tonal standard.
The Approach
Warm directional light evoking trattoria golden hour, a fixed compositional grid for every plate, dishes shot in sequence by visual weight, and one warm grade across the suite.
The Execution
Tight kitchen coordination kept dishes on set at peak. A single warm directional key held the tonal identity across the full menu, with detail shots of ingredients between courses. Files delivered for print, digital ordering and social.
The Outcome
A scalable photographic library covering every menu item — one identity across print menus, digital ordering and promotion, drawn from a single shoot.
