One has to eat to survive and we all make conscious choices every time we do!
The objective of a food photographer I believe, is to communicate and embellish those choices.
… Brent Parker Jones Food Photographer
One of Brent Parker Jones Food Photographers’ many food ideologies like above, begins with choosing food photography as the way he communicates to the world around him, and it’s the creative conscious choices Brent and his team make, that communicates and connects the wider story of the brief and to the final image.
Ten percent luck and ninety percent commitment …
to hard work has seen Brent survive, excel and even specialise in the competitive world of food photography. Specialisation in any other industry sounds dangerous. But as Brent explains, “when your life is so closely aligned to the way you see yourself and how you hope that others see you. You kind of have no other choice” He continues
“My work as a committed, passionate, dedicated food photographer equals my life and the way I wish to live it.”

And he has a big laugh.
That said, Brent places a great deal of importance and pride upon client retention. “I know it’s a strange one” he admits, he states “I get a real sense of pride, It’s the reward for a job well met and a healthy sign you have delivered on your promises and are as committed as your clients are. “ He says; “I love my clients and watching them grow more and more successful each time we meet. And I really hold dear the small part I have played in process. “Brent continued to say “I am lucky, most my clients are just passionate foodies like myself. They love and live their brands, produce and products as if they are their world. My clients also get that I just want the very, very best for them. I want them to walk back to the office and say take a look at the beautiful work we all have done.
