Elea Di Lorenzo

This is Food Happens, a consultancy agency dedicated to food related content creation (audiovisual) and capacity building (classes, training, coaching) on sustainable cooking, food photography and food styling. Created by Elea Di Lorenzo in 2010 in Argentina and later relocated to France and finally Switzerland in 2018.

As an enthusiastic food content creator my life is permeated by flavours every minute! I cook for cameras and I do style sets for food & moda publishing houses, food & lifestyle brands, travel agents and food & beverages establishments. For the last years I have constantly discovered new venues engaging with the communication of many cultures’ culinary traditions.
 

I am currently based in Geneva, Switzerland where you will find me working in a cozy welcoming shooting studio, available for both personal and third parties projects as much as in collaboration with international organisations.

And this (online) is a free space where you can find my daily recipes, weekend pastry experiments, sustainable ways of living, food travels & gatherings as well as commercial shootings & editorial content.

In the future I wish to continue and deepen my experience with food-journalism and photo/videography, through the roads of the local cuisine and sustainable and fair trade food production and processes.
