About

Hi! I'm Jessica and I love food - making it, styling it, photographing it and eating it!
​
I'm a Christchurch-based food photographer and stylist, recipe developer and video content creator. I'm passionate about working with boutique food brands to create delicious recipes and bright visuals that showcase their products, and inspire and grow their audiences.

My background over decades as a baker, successful cafe owner and kitchen manager shine through in my modern, easy-to-follow and seasonal recipes. I also have an in-depth understanding of what people like to eat and how to make food look and taste appealing.
 
Email hello@semlastudio.com or connect with me on social media to find out how I can help you get your food brand and products noticed.

"I reached out to Jessica to create some photos and recipes for us at The Avo Tree. I have found her extremely professional and lovely to deal with and she is such a clever creative! Her process and execution has been fantastic and we can't wait to work with her on more creations."

"Jess was an absolute pleasure to work with. The entire process was seamless and the end results were amazing - we couldn't be happier. Would absolutely recommend her beautiful photography services."

"We want to give a huge thank you to Jessica for her incredible work on our new 0% Chardonnay! She delivered stunning imagery with a super-fast turnaround and created a beautiful lifestyle setup that truly captures the essence of our alcohol-free wine."
