Lou Carruthers
Photographer
Hi I’m Lou, a Cotswold food and drink photographer, and I love to work with food and drink brands, restaurants and bars, hotels and editorials to create mouthwatering visual content . I’m passionate about independent producers and businesses, championing them with storytelling and stunning visuals to raft narratives rich in colour and texture, evoking emotions and immersing audiences.
Interested in working together?

Get to know me…
I’m an award-winning baker and passionate foodie, bringing a unique perspective to the world of food and drink photography. With a background in leadership and culture, I’ve always been passionate about uniting people through shared experiences; this now translates into creating delectable visuals that entice audiences to dive in.
Following the closure of my artisan bakery in 2012, I embarked on a new journey, igniting my passion for photography through my dessert recipe blog, Crumbs and Corkscrews; and so my story began…
Based near Cirencester, I shoot in my kitchen studio or on location, collaborating with clients across the UK and beyond. My central location offers convenient service to Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Somerset, and the wider South West.
Favourite place: Menorca; having spent my teenage years there. Spanish style is a strong influence.
Guilty pleasure: Singing along to Disney and musical soundtracks in the car. I won’t let it go…
Can’t live without: Cliched, but a camera – my phone or my Canon R6 Mark II must be in my hand.
Design style: A burst of colour popping against neutral tones and warm shadows… at the moment!
