All the photos on Manu’s Menu were taken by me unless otherwise specified.
To take the final pictures of my dishes I have used a Canon Digital 350D/Rebel XT 8MP until the beginning of 2014. From 2014 I have been using a Canon EOS 6D. I always use a tripod to ensure that my pictures are sharp.
My preferred lens is a Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM and I hope to also use a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro Lens soon.
My other lenses include:
Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM Lens
Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L II USM Lens
To take step by step photos I use either a Canon PowerShot S50 or a Canon PowerShot G15.
I always use natural light and a reflector to take my final pictures.
I use Lightroom 5 to edit all my photos.

Hi Manuela
Do you sell these photos? I’m particular interested to use your satay skewers photo for my menu, but wondering at what cost?
Manu says
Hi Maggie. I do. Can you please send me an email to [email protected] with more information on how you intend to use the photo (i.e. to print, online etc.). Is it for a restaurant or take-away menu? Do let me know. Thanks!
