James Ransom is an award-winning commercial photographer with over ten years of experience shooting stills and motion for brands spanning the food, still life, and interiors industries. A long-time contributor to Food52, he was central in developing the look and feel of their visual identity early on and continues photographing their cookbooks and content for their editorial and e-commerce channels.

James is a "glass-half-full" kind of guy and a believer in hard work and determination. He keeps his cool under pressure and is a delight to work with. His unique way of using color in his photography is the common thread that weaves through his visual style.
