I’m Dave, a Toledo-based photographer specializing in food and drink content for restaurants, bars, cafés, and hospitality brands. I’ve shot just about everything over the years — live music, products, real estate, branding — but nothing connects with people the way great food photography does. The emotion, the atmosphere, the colors, the craft… it’s the kind of work that makes customers stop scrolling and start craving.

I focus on creating images that do one thing: bring more people through your doors. Whether we’re shooting plated dishes, seasonal specials, cocktails, desserts, ambiance, or marketing content for social media, my style is built around clean lighting, bold color, and visuals that instantly elevate the way your restaurant looks online.

In Toledo’s food scene, great visuals are often the difference between being overlooked and becoming a place people talk about. My job is to make sure your food looks as good in photos as it tastes in person — and to give you content that helps you stand out, stay consistent, and grow.
