Testimonials
“It takes a great eye to shoot food beautifully and Craig Kinder certainly has that. I have been lucky enough to work with Craig on a number of books and travel across Australia shooting beautiful food all over the place.
Craig Kinder is one of the most talented food photographers I have ever had the privilege of working with”
Curtis Stone, Celebrity Chef
I was very nervous on our project but from the first 15 seconds of our photography session, I knew we will be making something amazing. Craig Kinder made me feel confident and relaxed because his attention to detail is unmatched. His dedication to the task at hand was commendable. Absolute pleasure working with him.
Eddie Bulatao, Gather Foods
The first thing you notice about this stunning cookbook is the photography. Craig Kinder has done such a wonderful job bringing the food to life that you almost want to lick the pages. But you would expect nothing less than exquisite attention to detail on any project with the name Alain Fabregues attached to it.

“Craig Kinder – what can I say he is the ROCK n ROLL star of food photography”
My cook book ‘Theo & Co the search for the perfect pizza’ won the award Australian cook book of the year and it has been UWA press’s biggest selling book in their 85 year history, whenever people congratulate me I say, I wrote a cook book, but its all about the photos.
Craig you Rock i will ONLY work with you.”

“Craig Kinder is THE triple threat when it comes to food photography.. so devoted to his craft, so in touch with the latest technical wizardry and... so likeable as a human being.
When negotiating the publishing deal for my cookbook; MUST EAT, my single request was Craig had to shoot the book.
Simply put, he makes my food look amazingly good!”
Russell Blaikie – Chef Proprietor Must Winebar Perth
“Craig is an absolute joy to work with – I can’t say enough good things about him! His professionalism, keen artistic eye, collaborative nature, good humour, enthusiasm and patience have made our photo sessions so easy and enjoyable. As a custom publisher of print and digital cookbooks, we have exacting requirements for our food photography in regards to style, composition and resolution. Our photo shoots can last for several weeks, and are designed to a tight schedule. And no matter how many challenging scenarios and requests we throw his way, nothing ruffles his feathers.
I innately trust Craig’s opinion – his experience, knowledge and award-winning skills in food photography are incomparable – and he is brilliant at setting everyone around him at ease. We shoot all of our images in-house, and Craig is more than happy to come to our office. He employs the latest in photographic technology, ensuring we have the highest quality images, with an incredibly quick turnaround.
Thermomix in Australia have used Craig exclusively for all of our food photography in the past 15 years, and we couldn’t be happier with his work.”
Rachel Hanson – Managing Editor, Thermomix in Australia and New Zealand
“To see food through Craig Kinder’s lens is to behold seemingly effortless art. Behind the lens, however, there is a ceaseless ocean of knowledge.”
Anna Maley-Fadgyas, Designer at UWAP
“The logistical task of putting together our inaugural book was indeed a large one. Engaging a specialist cook book production team led by well-renowned photographer Craig Kinder, from f22 Photography, food stylist Ursula Nairn and art director Cally Browning, has resulted in a book that far exceeded our expectations.
A total of 60 recipes were prepared (using natural gas of course), meticulously styled by Ursula and then photographed in a ‘temporary studio’ Craig and his team set up within the Blue Flame Kitchen. All this took place over a jam packed three day period.”
