FRANKIE THOMAS

Food, Interior & hospitality photographER

I photograph places the way they feel.

Late light through linen curtains. The hush before dinner. Sea air drifting through open doors.

Through food, restaurant and interior photography, I capture boutique hotels, restaurants and beautiful places to stay with atmosphere and intention ~ long before guests arrive.

Based in Cornwall in the South West UK, I work with hotels, restaurants and hospitality brands across the UK and internationally, creating imagery that reflects the experience of a place as much as its design.
