INTERNORGA is the leading trade fair for hospitality and foodservice: more than 1,200 exhibitors, around 85,000 trade visitors and five days on which restaurateurs, hoteliers, bakers and caterers plan their year.

INTERNORGA has two photographic worlds. The kitchen technology halls are full of stainless steel: combi steamers, dishwashers, refrigeration, counter systems — surfaces that reflect every hall light and quickly turn into a grey wall in photos. We work with a polariser, deliberate highlights and open appliance doors so function and interior become visible. Control panels we photograph separately with adjusted exposure so the display stays legible.
The food and drinks halls demand the opposite: warm light, short exposures for steam and plating, depth of field on the plate. Live cooking we cover with two cameras — chef and plate — so the sequence stays coherent in the video.
Hardly any show has this much movement on the stand: tastings, appliance demonstrations, barista competitions, conversations with head chefs. From these scenes we cut a 30-second highlight and vertical clips that go online the same evening. If you speak on one of the stages or are nominated for one of the competitions, we photograph speaker, jury and audience from several positions — the award handover without flash so stage lighting and mood are kept.
On request we film your appliance demonstration as a complete recording with radio mic: material for dealer training and your website.
The show opens on Friday and runs through the weekend. Saturday and Sunday are the busiest days because many restaurateurs can only leave their business then — good for stand life, difficult for clean product shots. Monday and Tuesday are quieter and bring buyers from hotels, contract catering and trade. We recommend the hour before opening on Friday for stand and appliances, a weekend day for tastings and conversations, and Monday for interviews.
Images are delivered within 24 hours, the highlight video on the evening of the shoot — your post runs while the show still has five days of reach.
Polariser, open appliance doors and legible control panels — stainless steel without the grey mirror wall.
Warm light, steam and plating with two cameras — chef and plate in context.
Drinks, coffee and tastings with backlight, labels legible, glass clear.
Stand architecture before opening on Friday, with no visitors in frame.
Speaker, jury and award handover without flash, short quote clips for social media.
Statements from head chefs, sales and customers with radio mics, subtitled.
A post with your stand while the show is still running gets seen and shared. That is why every package includes finished photos and video within 24 hours after the event ends — first images usually the same day. Two revision rounds included.
