Piljar Studio was established in 2020, bringing together over 15 years of photography expertise with a deep, genuine love for the hospitality industry. We don't just photograph food and drink — we understand the craft, the pressure, and the passion that goes into creating exceptional guest experiences.
Between us, Ladislav and Veronika bring over 30 years of working with and within the hospitality industry. That understanding shows in every frame — in how we light a glass of whisky to honour its maker, or how we capture the atmosphere of a restaurant at its finest hour.
Based in Edinburgh, we work with hotels, restaurants, bars and spirits brands across Scotland and beyond.
With over 30 years combined experience working in and for the hospitality industry, we bring a unique understanding to every brief. We know how a kitchen operates, how a bar is run, and what makes a great hotel tick.
We believe the best food and drink photography goes beyond the product. It captures the light, the mood, the texture — the feeling of being there. Every frame is considered, every shot intentional.
We work best when we know our clients well. Many of our relationships span years, and that continuity shows in the consistency and quality of what we produce together.
