Common questions about food photography for restaurant ads.

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.

Photograph the dish on your phone, pick one of 200+ styles and download the restyled shot in about 2 minutes. Then open Poster Mode, choose an ad template or upload your own, and export the finished image for Meta, Google Display or the screens in your restaurant.

Because guests order what they saw in the ad. A stock burger sets an expectation your kitchen can't match, while your own dish — restyled in a studio scene — shows the exact plate that arrives at the table. That builds trust and keeps your reviews in line with your ads.

Yes — upload your own design as a custom template in Poster Mode, and your restyled dish photos drop into it. Your logo, fonts and brand colors come from your own layout, so every ad stays on brand while only the dish and the offer change from week to week.

Every photo comes out square (1:1), portrait (2:3) or landscape (3:2) at 2K. Use square for the Meta feed, portrait for stories and vertical placements, and landscape for Google Display banners and in-store screens — the same restyled dish carries across all three.

No — FoodShot makes still images, the format most restaurant ads on Meta feeds and Google Display run on. Every dish comes out as a sharp 2K photo, and one upload can return several variations, so you can test which image earns the most clicks.

In about 2 minutes per photo. Shoot this week's special on your phone, restyle it in the same style as last week's ad, and drop it into your saved template — the campaign stays consistent while the dish changes every week.

Your restaurant ads deserve better food photos.
