Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What services does WDS Visuals offer to Bay Area restaurants and food brands?
WDS Visuals provides professional food & beverage photography, restaurant videography, short-form social media videos (Reels/TikToks), and full content-calendar management for eateries across San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, and the broader Bay Area.
Why hire a specialist food photographer instead of a general commercial photographer?
Food requires its own lighting, styling, and storytelling. Our team has 20+ years of food-industry experience and knows how to style steam, sauce gloss, and cocktail condensation so your dishes convert browsers into diners.
Do you travel outside San Francisco for shoots?
Yes! We’re headquartered in the East Bay Area, but we regularly shoot on-location in San Jose, Sacramento, Palo Alto, Walnut Creek, Napa, and Santa Cruz, and we’ll travel Nationwide for larger multi-day brand campaigns.
Can WDS Visuals manage our social media as well as create the content?
Absolutely. Our Video, Content & Social Media Experts handle everything from shooting and editing to caption writing, scheduling, and paid ad optimization—so you get scroll-stopping posts and consistent growth without lifting a spatula.
What’s included in a typical restaurant photo-video session?
Creative brief & shot list
Hero food plates, drink pours, and ambience photos
15–30 sec highlight video ready for Reels/TikTok/website
Interior / exterior location photos for Google Business Profile
Delivery of edited, web-optimized files within 5 business days
How far in advance should we book a shoot in the Bay Area?
Peak seasons (summer & holidays) fill up fast. We suggest booking 3–4 weeks ahead, but we keep a rush slot open each month for last-minute launches.
Do you offer monthly content packages?
Yes—our most popular program is the “Always-Fresh” plan: a monthly shoot, 20 edited photos, 4 short-form videos, and complete Instagram + Facebook scheduling. Ask for details!
Can you help a ghost kitchen or meal-prep brand without a dine-in space?
Projects start at $1,500 for half-day shoots and scale based on shot count, talent, and deliverables. We create fixed-fee proposals so there are no surprise add-ons.
Are gluten-free options available?
Definitely. We bring backdrops, props, and portable lighting—perfect for ghost kitchens, commissaries, and delivery-only concepts looking to boost app conversions.
