Jeff Dahlgren is the vision behind Fortis Photo, a Chicago-based commercial studio specialising in food and beverage photography.
As the season has shifted into warmer days, some of Jeff’s recent work has embodied a fresh summer flavor highlighting simple mediterranean dishes. His love of natural light, coupled with the change of seasons creates a memorable sense of place, like an outdoor lunch on a trip to Greece!
Some of Fortis Photo’s satisfied clients including Archer Roose, Truly, US Foods, and Pampered Chef rely on Jeff’s images to capture their own vision of food & drinks, or their brands lifestyle in a fun and collaborative environment.
On shoot days, you can experience his beautifully, well-designed studio space, built out of an old foundry, just a block west of the Chicago river in the West Town neighborhood. His 4,000 sq ft photography studio with extensive prop collection was renovated with shooting in mind.
