Hi, I’m Marni Katz.

I’m all about keeping things simple. My photography is light and bright and focused on the people or food I’m photographing, not on all the stuff around it. I want the subject to shine!

I started my food blog, Simple Gray T-Shirt as a place to find recipes that were as simple as putting on your favorite gray t-shirt. Nothing too fancy, just simple, delicious food. My photography has the same feel the blog.

As time went on, I realized that I missed interacting with people (since the food can’t talk) and developed the family photography side of my business.

My photoshoots are outdoors in the metro-Detroit suburbs. I love a light dreamy background with people at the forefront of the photos. I share both full color and black and white images in my galleries.

I shoot food in a light home studio with natural light. I’m available for food & recipe photography, product photography for food brands, UGC-style content for brands, and recipe development and photography.

Not sure what you need? That’s totally fine, most people aren’t. I’m happy to help you figure it out during a discovery call.
