What You'll Learn

You’ll learn how to…

  • Define your offer and pitch it clearly — so restaurants understand your value and say yes faster.

  • Build a portfolio that helps you get hired — even if you don’t have paid clients yet.

  • Learn how to price your work and deliver professionally —so clients pay without negotiating and come back.

  •  Follow a real restaurant shoot from prep to delivery—so you know exactly how to work with paying clients.

  • Turn one restaurant job into repeat work—so you build consistent income instead of chasing new clients.

Meet Ruben Cabrera

I’m Ruben Cabrera, a Miami-based commercial food photographer, director, and educator with over 10 years of experience working with restaurants, hotels, and food brands.

I’m the founder of Ruben Pictures, a creative production studio focused on high-end food and hospitality content. My background includes culinary school, professional kitchen experience, and building a successful commercial photography business from the ground up. Before photography, I also worked in production for major clients like Nickelodeon.

My studio is hired not for “pretty photos,” but for content that supports real business goals. I understand what restaurants need, how images are used to sell food and experiences, and how to deliver consistently in real commercial environments.

Today, I help food and hospitality brands tell their story through bold, craveable visuals—and I teach photographers how to do the same with real clients and real results.
