Cookbook Food Styling
As a Cordon Bleu trained food stylist with over 25 years' experience, I manage the volume and pace a full manuscript demands, styling dish after dish so the whole book reads as one cohesive, appetizing collection rather than a string of unrelated shots. I offer Cookbook food styling which Perth authors and publishers can lean on for recipe-by-recipe consistency.
My cookbook work includes cover styling as well as full interior recipe shoots, including covers for Lose It. Whether it's a debut self-published book or a multi-chapter project for a publisher, I work closely with the author and photographer from early test shots through to final delivery.
If you're a Perth-based or Australian author or publisher looking for a food stylist for your next cookbook, get in touch with your manuscript size, timeline and any creative direction you already have in mind.
