Kansas City photographer David Morris is nationally known for his exceptional food and advertising photography, lighting and image design. The advertising and food studio's approach is one of simplicity in choice of elements, design and use of light. The clearest and most effective solution for Food photography involves a painstaking selection of the finest food ingredients, carefully designed with a sense of balance and sculpted with a beautiful sensitive light. Photographer and communicator David Morris is nationally recognized for his outstanding storytelling and signature lighting for portrait images. David's sense of design, passion for detail and capacity to communicate though his images has resulted in his midwest advertising studio being selected to work on a number of major photographic projects for leading midwest and international companies. For over 19 years, David’s specialized experience in food, people and product photography has landed many long-term clients both locally and nationally. His dedication to precision has produced award-winning, quality work displayed in numerous national ad campaigns, billboards, product packaging, books and magazines as seen in our portfolio and client list.

David is always looking for new ways to express his creativity. His new photographic style “Urban Grit” is a great representation of the many layers which encompass David’s personality and talent. This style shows a raw yet almost surreal vision, capturing ordinary people in an extraordinary way. His ability to see and understand his own creative vision, compliments his ability to work as a team with art directors on the most complex concepts.

Communicating messages across a variety of planes is one of many strengths David brings to a photoshoot. A keen understanding of his craft, both technically and artistically, enables David to combine aspects of style and lighting to enhance communication and draw attention to each product.

From conception to print, we take the time to understand a company’s identity and core value of their product. Our midwest studio has mastered a form of communication through the lens and successfully represents our clients brands in their market place.
Our work is about solving problems, quality, service and valued relationships. We are very happy to be re-located back in the downtown Crossroads Arts district at 2131 Washington Street, Studio 2131!
