Tobias Reymond Foto | Film
Amsterdam
"Tobias Reymond Foto | Film was given the honour to execute food photography and image manipulation for Calvé’s international redesign: have a look at these fresh new images, designed by Anthem Amsterdam.
On the other end of the universe we’re shooting the all new packaging range for Fairtrade, designed by Proud Amsterdam: an interesting mix of graphics and photography. In between, the first results for DRG, a local retailer’s private label, started to emerge.
For Yakult we realised a stop-motion animation. And, last but not least, our motion control rig served well in handling a complicated move and focus pull for the latest Becel Pro-Activ tag-on.
Our team consists of three professional photographers, a production manager and a backdrop artist. We draw from a consistent group of the best food stylists and retouchers. We are preferred suppliers to Unilever, KLM and Ahold."

Tobias Reymond Foto | Film
Amsterdam
"Collaboration is what made humans differ from other species in Nature; through fire food was easier to digest, thus leaving more energy to feed our every hungry brains.
So teamwork is an essential prerequisite for a successful campaign, especially in food photography where in current globalisation, all these different cultures and habits should be respected.
Spaghetti Bolognese as a powdery product comes in at least 11 varieties in the whole of Europe, while none of these recipes conjures to mind the original from Bologna. This calls for expertise from the home-economist, producer and photographer. The above is a prelude to the publication of a large international rebranding for one of our major clients, Unilever.
For now, Tobias Reymond Foto|Film are happy to show some no-brainers, containing soulful shots for Schulp Natural Fruit Juices, Vezet’s ever growing palette of cut vegetables, and iconic dairy shots for French client Candia.”
