Basil & Bay

Culinary Brand Development Through Imagery & Content

I want others to crave you!

as a food Photographer & stylist, it's my job to make your food  look irresistible  

My passion is for food and taking images that look good enough to eat.

I take creative, inviting, realistic and approachable images, Images that instantly make people want to pull up a seat at your table and want what you are selling.

Photography, cooking and being creative is something I have always been drawn to ever since I was young.

I gain inspiration from entrepreneurs, artists, light and colour. Inspiration is all around us. We just need to know where to look. 

My passion for food and developing recipes really intensified after adopting a Plant Based diet, back in 2019. Soon after that I also fell in love with food and drink photography and crafting visual stories. Basil and Bay was then born.

I felt so inspired by all the new flavour combinations, different ways of making humble ingredients like beans, lentils and vegetables interesting, the more combinations I discovered, the more I wanted to share my recipes with the world. 

Head over to the blog section on my site to check out all the plant based goodness.

I'm Meg

hi friend,

Scarves... I have a rather large, growing collection and I'm not ashamed of it. I also love to blast Country music & Spanish pop whilst in the studio. 

I'm a little too into:

People who are rude & impatient, Late nights, when you get wrinkled socks in your boots, planning holidays (I leave that all to Kyle).

Not about:

When I was younger I wanted to be interior designer. I enjoy DIY projects and updating rooms in our house.

When I grow up:

Spring, everything starts to come alive and wake up after a long winter. I also love a crisp dry autumn morning.

Favourite Season:

The dream is to find and renovate a farm house in the country and have enough land for a few rescue animals, more chickens and a bigger veggie garden, oh and a little photography studio #WFHGOALS

Future Goal:

Creativity, Podcasts, Nature, hot frothy matcha lattes, potatoes - in any form, snuggles with my pup Roscoe, feeding the neighbourhood squirrels.

I'm all about:

A Little More About Me:

Unlike everyone else I did not get into sourdough baking, but I did get into gardening and fell in love with growing my own organic fruit and veg.
