Menu Styles

One style across your whole menu

Pick one of 200+ styles and run every dish through it — starters, mains, kids plates and desserts come back with the same light, angle and surface. On the Starter plan, 25 photos cost $15, about 60 cents a dish, so the whole menu fits one budget line.

Builder Mode

Build your menu's set once

Pick a surface and setting once — diner counter, warm oak or white marble — then drop in each dish as you photograph it. Builder Mode combines them into one cohesive shot, so a dish you add in March sits naturally beside the ones from launch day.

Try Builder Mode→

My Styles

Reshoot one dish, keep the look

Upload a photo from your current menu or your own table as a style reference, and every new dish inherits its lighting, surface and mood. When a recipe changes, photograph the new plate on your phone and swap one photo — one credit — while the rest of the menu stays as it is.

FAQ

Menu Photography FAQ

Common questions about food photography for restaurant menus.

hello@foodshot.ai

FoodShot AI is a web and mobile app for restaurants, cafés, bakeries and other food businesses. You upload a photo of a dish you already have, choose a style, and FoodShot AI turns it into a professional food photo that you can download and use on your menu, delivery apps, website and social media.

It's simple! Upload a photo of your food, choose your desired style (menu photography or social media format), and click generate. Each photo takes about 2 minutes. For poster creation, select from our professional templates, add your text, and create marketing-ready content.

Yes! Download our mobile app from the App Store to create stunning dish photos on the go. Access all features directly from your iOS device.

Yes! FoodShot AI is now available on Android. You can download it from Google Play and start creating professional food photos directly from your Android device.

With a paid plan, you can use the images you create for any lawful commercial purpose, including your restaurant, menus, delivery apps, marketing campaigns and social media. FoodShot does not claim ownership of them. See our Terms of Service for details.

Yes! For bulk processing needs, please email us at hello@foodshot.ai for our Enterprise plan options.

Yes, subscriptions renew month-to-month. To cancel, open Settings and click Manage subscription — it opens your Stripe billing portal, where you can cancel in one click. Fully self-serve, no questions asked, takes under a minute. Your plan stays active until the end of the billing period.

Yes, plan changes take effect immediately. You can upgrade or downgrade directly from your account dashboard. The new pricing will be adjusted for your current billing cycle.

We offer a full refund if you haven't used any credits in your current billing period. Refund requests must be made within 7 days of payment. Previous billing periods are non-refundable. Simply contact us at hello@foodshot.ai if you're not satisfied.

No, unused credits do not roll over to the next month. This applies to both monthly and yearly plans. Credits refresh every month regardless of your billing plan.

Yes! With our custom photography feature, you can upload your own reference images to create consistent branded content. Upload your restaurant's signature background, plating style, or any reference photo, and FoodShot AI will generate new images matching that exact style.

Absolutely! Once you upload a custom background or reference template, you can use it for all your future generations. This is perfect for maintaining consistent branding across all your food photography. Save your favorite backgrounds and create a cohesive visual identity for your restaurant.

FoodShot AI supports all major image formats including JPG, PNG, WEBP, and HEIC. For best results, we recommend using high-quality images with good lighting. The AI will analyze your reference and apply the same style, lighting, and composition to your food photos.

Yes! You can upload your own poster designs and templates. Whether it's your restaurant's branded template or a custom design, simply upload it and FoodShot AI will intelligently place your food photos while preserving your design elements, logos, and text.

All paid plans include unlimited custom template uploads. You can build an entire library of your brand's templates, backgrounds, and reference styles.

About 60 cents a dish on the Starter plan — $15 a month buys 25 credits, and one credit makes one photo. The 100-photo plan works out to 45 cents a dish and the 250-photo plan to about 40 cents, so even a long menu has a predictable, per-dish price.

Yes. Choose one of 200+ styles and run every dish through it — starters, mains, sides, kids plates and desserts come back with the same lighting, angle and surface. Dishes photographed weeks apart sit side by side on the printed page and the online menu as if they came from one session.

Photograph the new plate on your phone and run it through the same style — one credit, about 2 minutes, and it matches the rest of the menu. A new recipe, a seasonal swap or a chef's special gets its photo the same day it goes on the menu.

Yes. Every photo is delivered at 2K resolution — 2048 pixels — which prints crisply at the sizes menus use for dish photos. Download the files and hand them to your own printer or menu designer, and use the studio's 2× upscale when a poster or window display needs a larger file.

Yes. The same files work on your website, QR menu, social pages and delivery apps like Uber Eats and DoorDash. Choose square, portrait or landscape format for each placement, and paid plans include a commercial license for print, online ordering and promotions.

A clear photo in daylight or bright kitchen light, with the whole plate in frame and the camera at the angle your menu uses. Plate each dish exactly as you serve it — FoodShot restyles the light, surface and setting while keeping your food as it left the kitchen.

Your menu deserves better food photos.
