About Nutmeg Imageworks

Nutmeg

While our focus is food photography, that can mean a lot of things. But in general, our productions can range from a restaurant’s menu revamp, to a supermarket’s big holiday ad, to product packaging, to conceptual scenes for lifestyle. We work with advertising agencies at all levels of production as well as direct with client marketing departments. We love every size of project big or small, studio or location, full crew or just a few, and I love to arrange it all. We produce many of our projects from our studio in Largo [scroll down for studio info], but are always excited to travel wherever is needed to make it happen for our clients!

Meagan

I started the business in late 2012 backed by the gumption of someone in their mid 20’s with a dream of doing something big and creating an exciting, entrepreneurial life. And lucky for us, we’re still out here creating images and loving what we get to do! I say “we” because after a few years, I needed a little extra help, so my husband Aaron stepped in to be a part of the business in 2017. Together we’ve worked with all levels of clients from mom & pop restaurants to worldwide brands. I started in photography by assisting a commercial photographer who loved to challenge me with complex lighting scenarios, and that challenge still drives me today. Give me a tricky product to light or a production puzzle to solve and I’m at my best!

Aaron

Behind every chatty woman is a very chill guy. Aaron is the quite calm on the set. Getting things done behind the scenes, in front of the scenes (his hands have been in MANY client photos) and wherever he’s needed. He works as my assistant on set and as the photoshop grunt worker, among many other things, off set. He has also kept me from falling off of countless apple boxes. Countless.

Aaron’s time in the military in our early 20’s allowed me the space to take this crazy leap of a career and his unwavering support over the years has kept me going through it all. Yeah, I’m clearly a little mushy about it, but we keep it 100% profesh on set.

Several people are seated, some with drinks, while others are using their phones. The bar has various taps, posters, and signs, creating a lively atmosphere.

About The studio

Our studio is decked out to be the perfect space for commercial food photography. The 1500 square foot natural light studio is located in Largo, Florida. We’re 20 minutes from Tampa Int’l Airport, central to St Pete, Tampa, & all of the Tampa Bay Area. Our studio has been equipped and designed to meet the needs of our food and beverage clients. We’ve outfitted a large kitchen right next to the set that provides an ideal food prep area for chefs & food styling crews. Our organized, curated collection of props and backgrounds offer our clients (and studio renters) a great start to building whatever set is needed!

We are equipped for remote photography setups that offer seamless image sign-offs as the photo shoot is happening, no matter where you are located. We also welcome clients into our space to be part of the process in person. There is a comfy lounge and workspace with plenty of coffee and snacks to make sure your team is comfortable and caffeinated. We can't wait to work with you!
