I create compelling, photograph-ready food and drink presentations that elevate menus, marketing, and editorial content for luxury hotels and restaurants. As a food, drink, and soft-goods stylist, I design visually consistent, brand-aligned plates and beverage setups for commercial, video, and still photography—selecting props, textures, and color palettes that complement your space and culinary identity. I collaborate closely with chefs, beverage directors, photographers, and creative teams to translate menu concepts into polished visual stories, optimize plating and staging for camera and guest perception, and ensure efficient on-set execution under tight timelines.
My services include pre-shoot concepting and mood boards, prop sourcing and styling, on-site styling and adjustments during shoots, and post-shoot wrap guidance to preserve presentation standards—helping luxury properties present food and drink that looks as exceptional as it tastes.
Styling hotel rooms means focusing on making beds the centerpiece: steam linens, arrange pillows and duvets to hotel standards, to feel welcoming and consistent. Public areas need grouped seating, and balanced decor and lighting that invites guests to stay. Boardrooms and ballrooms require flexible, polished setups—crisp linens, fitted chair covers, clear sightlines, and hidden tech—to suit both small meetings and large events. Restaurant styling should match the menu and service with suitable soft goods, table accents, and lighting that flatters the food and is easy to maintain.

I travel regularly for shoots — from single-day jobs in your city to week-long commercial productions on location.

Yes,
I provide a full suite of styling resources for food and architectural shoots, including a curated selection of backgrounds, tableware, and props, plus decor tailored specifically for hotels. For local projects I supply lifelike faux plants and on-set styling; for out-of-town shoots I can design and source and order whatever you need — from specialty tabletop pieces to — coordinating delivery so your shoot runs smoothly and looks cohesive.

Yes — you can book Kelly to handle both food presentation and tabletop props for a restaurant, hotel or a commercial branded photo shoot. As a stylist Kelly has experience in both food and soft goods. She brings consistent aesthetic judgment, streamlines communication, and ensures harmony between the plated dishes and the surrounding tabletop elements. This approach reduces coordination time, keeps styling cohesive across shots and formats (still and video), and often lowers production costs compared with hiring separate specialists. Be sure to clarify the shoot scope and prep needs in advance, and allow enough time for staging, adjustments, and any food safety or refrigeration requirements.

I bring extensive knowledge in cocktail styling, blending technical precision with creative vision to make every drink photograph or film-ready; my kit includes floating faux ice for perfectly composed tops, snow ice for convincing frozen textures, realistic condensation solutions that bead and cling to glassware, plus a full range of tools and soft goods—stirrers, garnishing props and specialty adhesives—so you can achieve consistent, camera-ready cocktails for commercial, video, and still photography work.
