Food Photography for Luxury Hotels & Fine Dining Restaurants

Food is more than a meal,
it's a story waiting to be told.

Hi! I'm Ivannia, a Costa Rica based food photographer available through Latin America and worldwide. I have over 10 years of experience working with luxury hotels and fine dining restaurants.

I work alongside chefs, capturing the passion behind every dish they create.

Beyond the plate.

Before each project, I take the time to understand the essence and philosophy behind each restaurant and hotel, so every image tells a story reflecting the brand's personality.

As a food photographer, I follow the chef's creative process closely, exploring the ingredients they use, the inspiration behind their work, and the ideas behind the menu.

The creative process.

I love capturing how a dish comes to life, the chef at work, the hands shaping each element, the movement in the kitchen, and the small details that make the process so meaningful.

Through my food photography, I highlight the craft and intention behind every plate. This isn't just content. It's photography with purpose, made to do justice to the art each chef pours into their work.

When it all comes together.

Seeing a chef's reaction when they see their dish through my lens for the first time is proof the image is honest.

That's what I aim for with every project, not just a beautiful photograph, but one that captures the true experience a restaurant or hotel has to offer, and makes people want to experience it for themselves.

See my work!
