Spice & Light

Selected Works

Some of Anusha’s favourite work has come from projects no-one commissioned. Her Ceylon and Friday night In both started as an idea she couldn’t shake – one rooted in Sri Lankan heritage and one chasing light and colour. It’s a thread that runs through most of what she shoots for herself, one way or another.

Her Ceylon, for example follows a day in the life of her mother – the breakfast scene of tropical fruits, a lazy afternoon with the ingredients to make a tropical cocktail, chai and Sri lankan sweets after an evening out.

Friday Night In is looser – a poker game, arrack alongside other cocktails, sari fabric shown in some images – but the same heritage running through, albeit a little less obvious.

Then Morning Rituals – a relaxing weekend in the countryside, with her dogs just slowing down and appreciating life.

Have a look below at her personal projects.

“The proof is in the picturesˮ

“Anusha is a true talent in the photography world! A pleasure to deal with from the offset.

Her attention to detail is second to none and the support before the shoot, on the shoot and after was fantastic.

Anusha will go the extra mile on the day to ensure the final photo is the best version it could be and having a peek in her Aladdinʼs cave of props and backgrounds was an added bonus.

Canʼt recommend Anusha enough – can’t wait for our next seasonal shoot together.”

Georgie, At Home Catering

“Anusha came highly recommendedˮ

“I couldnʼt have been more pleased with the results of our recipe and product photoshoot for Herbieʼs Spices.

She was extremely attentive with great advice and input from the minute I got in touch and throughout the planning, shoot and delivery of the wonderful images.

We had lots of fun on the shoot too which was a bonus, and I look forward to working with her again in the future.ˮ

Kate, Herbie’s Kitchens

Anusha is an absolute artist

“We worked with her for the first time on the very first product shots for our new brand, Spooners. Her eye for detail is insane. She made a blob of cookie dough into a work of art! We were so happy with the results and I hope she will work with us again. Canʼt recommend her enough – both in terms of her talent and also the level of care she brings to her work. Thank you Anusha!ˮ

Claire, Spooners

“I cannot praise Anusha highly enough”

“If there were 10 out of 10 stars then I would give them to her! From the start of my engagement and working with Anusha until present day, she has been a true asset and inspiration to me and for my company. Her professionalism, advice and work ethics are second to none. Anusha’s images are amazing and have captured the essence of my handmade chocolate truffles together with adding so much depth and warmth to my website. It has been an absolute pleasure to have worked with Anusha who I can highly recommend.ˮ

Marie, Cocoa Dust Chocolates

“Working with Anusha has been a pleasure from the very beginning”

At The Fish Society, we needed high-quality content for our product pages and social media accounts, including raw product photography, lifestyle shots, and mouth-watering recipe videos designed to inspire customer confidence and drive purchases.Anusha perfectly captured the journey we wanted to showcase – from the exact product our customers receive to how it can be transformed into a delicious meal. Her creative vision and attention to detail have brought our brand to life in a way that exceeded our expectations. We can’t recommend Anusha highly enough – not only for her exceptional talent but also for the care and dedication she brings to every project.

Sri Lankan Chicken & Potato Curry

It wonʼt come as any surprise to you all that I think Sri Lankan curries are the best the world has to offer. Especially this Chicken and Potato Curry.

I mean apart from Sri Lanka being my motherland, the sheer amount of spice that goes lovingly into each and every dish, be it powdered, bruised, crushed, raw, roasted….. makes it a joy to cook and to eat.
