Every dish photographed, every platform, done for you
I come to your restaurant, photograph the food you already serve, and hand back a set sized for every delivery app you sell on, uploaded for you. You plate the dishes. That is the whole job on your side.
A food photographer charges $100 to $200 a dish. This works out around $30, and it includes every platform size and the upload.

What this replaces
| A food photographer | Menu Refresh | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost per dish | $100 to $200 | About $30 |
| What comes back | A folder of images | One file per platform, cropped for each |
| Uploading to the apps | Yours to do | Done for you |
| Timeline | Book, shoot, edit, wait | Shot on site, back the same week |
| The food itself | Real | Real. Never generated |
Photographer figures are the published independent range from PlatePhoto's own cost calculator, consistent with Snappr and Thumbtack quotes. The per dish figure here is the package price divided by the dishes it covers.
Take DoorDash's free shoot first. Then read this.
DoorDash offers qualifying merchants a free photoshoot: a 1.5 hour session, up to 20 menu items and one header image, with the food the only cost to you. It is genuinely good and you should take it.
Then check where those photos are allowed to go. DoorDash's merchant blog states it as a prohibition: you cannot use the photos on any other third-party delivery platforms. Its help centre states the same rule more softly, as a request. Whichever binds you is set by the agreement you signed rather than by a marketing page.
Either way, if you sell on Uber Eats or Grubhub as well, the free shoot fixes one app and leaves the others exactly as empty as they were. That gap is what this is for.
How it works
- 1
I pull your menu
Free, and before you commit to anything. I read your delivery listing and count how many items show up with no picture. Most owners are surprised by the number.
- 2
I photograph your dishes
On site, about two hours for a Menu Starter and half a day for a Full Menu. You plate the food the way you normally would. Nothing gets styled into something you do not sell.
- 3
Every platform gets its own file
DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, Google and Instagram each want a different shape. You get all of them, sized correctly, and I upload them for you.
Done for you
Rather not pick up a camera at all?
Take DoorDash's free photoshoot, genuinely. Then check where those photos are allowed to go, because DoorDash asks you to keep them off other delivery platforms. One shoot with us covers every platform you sell on, sized correctly and uploaded.

Questions I get asked
- Will my photos be approved?
- I prepare them to each platform's current published requirements. The final review is the platform's, not mine, and nobody can promise you an approval. In practice the rejections I see are dark, blurry or artificial looking images, and none of those apply to your actual dish shot properly.
- Is this AI generated food?
- No. I photograph the dish you actually serve. Software fixes lighting, background and sizing around it. If the food itself changes, the result gets thrown out. That rule is the reason this business exists.
- DoorDash will do it for free. Why would I pay?
- Take the free shoot. It covers up to 20 items in one session and you only pay for the food. Then read where DoorDash allows those photos to go: its merchant blog says not on any other third-party delivery platform. If you sell on more than one app, the free shoot solves one of them.
- What if I would rather shoot my own?
- You should, and that is the other half of this business. The self serve plans start at $13 and you keep full control of every photo. This page is for when you would rather hand the whole thing over.
- How long does it take?
- A Menu Starter shoot is about two hours on site, a Full Menu about half a day. Files come back the same week, sized for each platform and uploaded to your listings for you.
- Do you work outside Atlanta?
- I am based in Woodstock and work across metro Atlanta. The Menu Gap Fix is fully remote, so if you are further out you can send phone photos of the missing items and skip the visit entirely.
