We created a comprehensive photographic portfolio for Fisch Witte, a renowned family-owned business in Munich’s Viktualienmarkt. The project combined high-quality product photography for the new online store with food photography, portraits, and authentic corporate photography of the team.
As the team at Daniel Schvarcz Photography, we provide professional product and advertising photography, food photography, and corporate photography for businesses, restaurants, retailers, and brands.
At Fisch Witte, the focus was not solely on presenting the products. A significant portion of the photo shoot was dedicated to the people behind the company—the employees who shape Fisch Witte through their daily work, experience, and personalities.
Product Photography for the New Online Store
An important part of the photo shoot was taking professional product photos for Fisch Witte’s new online store.
When it comes to high-quality food products, it is essential to present them in a way that is both accurate and appetizing. The color, texture, freshness, and appearance of the products must be depicted realistically while also conveying the quality of the offerings.
Our professional product photography therefore combines controlled lighting with a natural rendering of materials and colors.
For digital sales platforms, these product lines can be specifically paired with our e-commerce photography. We pay particular attention to consistent perspectives, image sizes, and a uniform visual presentation.
Food photography with a focus on quality and freshness
When it comes to fish and other high-quality foods, the way a product is photographed plays a major role in determining how fresh and high-quality it is perceived to be.
The challenge is to bring out the natural colors, moisture, textures, and details without making the product look artificial.
That is why our professional food photography uses controlled lighting and precise composition, keeping the product front and center.
Food Photography at Munich’s Viktualienmarkt
In addition to the product shots, atmospheric photos of the dining area at Fisch Witte were taken.
The location at Munich’s Viktualienmarkt is an important part of the company’s identity. That’s why it was important to us not only to document individual dishes or products, but also to capture the distinctive atmosphere of the place.
Our food and beverage photography combines interior and exterior shots, dishes, details, and people into a series of images that gives guests an authentic impression of the establishment.
The People Behind Fisch Witte
This production focused particularly on the employees.
A family business is defined not only by its products and facilities, but above all by the people who work with customers every day, prepare products, and represent the company to the outside world.
As a result, numerous candid portraits and work scenes were captured that do not show the team in isolation, but rather within their real work environment.
This type of corporate photography is particularly well-suited to bringing together personality, corporate culture, and craftsmanship.
Authentic situations instead of traditional staging
When photographing people for Fisch Witte, it was especially important to work as naturally as possible.
Many of the most powerful images aren’t created through elaborately staged situations, but rather during real-life work processes, conversations, and encounters.
Through a subtle photographic approach, we created images that convey a sense of intimacy while remaining professional enough for use on the website, in marketing, and in corporate communications.
Showcasing Craftsmanship and Experience
Fisch Witte is known for its artisanal food offerings. It was precisely this combination of products, expertise, and personal service that we wanted to convey through this photo series.
Close-ups of products and work processes therefore complement the portraits and food photography. This creates not an isolated impression of individual areas, but a cohesive visual narrative of the company.
Such visual imagery is particularly valuable for traditional family-owned businesses because it credibly conveys quality and experience.
Consistent visual style for the website and online store
A major advantage of a comprehensive photo production is that it covers various areas of communication within a unified visual language.
Product photos, food shots, team photos, and restaurant images were planned so that they complement each other and can be used together on the website, online store, or social media.
This creates a consistent brand identity in which products, people, and companies are visually linked.
Product Photography and Corporate Photography in a Single Day of Production
Depending on the scope of a project, different photographic disciplines can be effectively combined.
For restaurants and retail businesses in particular, it makes sense to combine product photography, food photography, employee portraits, and atmospheric corporate shots into a single photo shoot.
This provides the customer with a diverse collection of images that can then be used for various marketing and communication initiatives.
A personal project
Our collaboration with Fisch Witte also held personal significance for us. The Witte family has known Daniel Schvarcz since he was a child.
It was all the more wonderful, then, to be able to provide professional photographic coverage of this long-established company many years later and to document the people, products, and atmosphere of Fisch Witte in a comprehensive photo series.
