About Me

Hey there!

I’m Kailee Mandel, a Toronto-based commercial photographer specializing in food, product, and lifestyle photography.

Photography first entered my life as a way to connect with my mom, an incredibly talented wildlife photographer. What started as time spent together behind the camera grew into a deep appreciation for storytelling, creativity, and an attention to detail that still shapes how I work today.

My goal is simple: to create imagery that brings joy. I make content that feels vibrant, dynamic, and intentional, where each element has purpose, and the final image feels just right. Whether I’m photographing food, products, or people, I care deeply about making images that are both visually compelling and genuinely useful for the brands behind them.

Collaboration is at the heart of my process. I love working as part of a team and believe the best images come from shared energy, trust, and creative exchange.

I work with brands across Canada and internationally, creating commercial photography that feels thoughtful, modern, and grounded in human connection.

Let’s make something great together!
