Max Milla

Hi, I'm Max

I'm a Commercial Food, Beverage & Product Photographer based in Southern California. I create bold, colorful, and playful imagery that helps brands tell their story across ads, packaging, and social.

My work blends creative instincts with marketing strategy to capture moments that are both striking and appetizing. From a dripping ice cream cone to a drink caught mid splash, my goal is to create visuals that are as dynamic as they are delicious.

Originally from Lima, Peru, I moved to the U.S. as a child and now call Orange County home. When I’m not on set, you’ll probably find me at the beach with a burger from a hole-in-the-wall joint.

I work with brands and agencies across the country, from Los Angeles to New York and everywhere in between.
