Dark & moody food photography is what Sean does. If you’ve seen his Instagram, you’d know that. But there is something deeper to these photos that you might not notice at first glance. Each photo tells it’s own unique story, a story about a place, a person, or a culture. Together, they comprise a collection of works that aim to elicit emotions within their viewer. This aspect of emotional storytelling is central to any form of photography, and is one of the most crucial aspects to capturing powerful food photos.
