Meet Tambi


A  food and product photographer based in Bend, Oregon, I work with restaurants, food brands, cookbook authors, and makers nationwide. With 20 years of photography experience, across multiple genres, I specialize in clean, bright, and natural imagery that helps your brand stand out.


My passion is capturing the details that make food look irresistible and products shine. Whether it’s a beautifully plated dish, a handcrafted product, or a behind-the-scenes moment, I create authentic, eye-catching visuals that connect with audiences and build brand recognition.


I take a thoughtful, sustainable approach, often incorporating recycled and repurposed props for a unique, eco-friendly touch. To me, great photography isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about telling a story that resonates.


From menu photography and cookbook imagery to editorial content and restaurant interiors, I collaborate closely with clients to bring their visions to life. Whether you're refreshing your content or launching something new, I’m here to create stunning, professional photography that makes an impact.


Let’s bring your brand to life—one delicious image at a time.
