Meet Yuliia Kushnir, your food and brand photographer in York
I am a professional photographer based in York. I specialise in food and brand photography, and I work with restaurants, cafes, hotels and businesses that want their products to look their best.
I bring my own professional equipment and I travel to your location across York and North Yorkshire, so the shoot fits around your kitchen and your schedule. I created content for established brands and restaurants, along with independent bakers and small producers.
My approach stays close to the real product, with natural editing and no heavy retouching, so your food looks fresh and honest. I shoot both photography and video, which means you can cover your menu and your social media from a single session.
How the process works
Good planning is what turns a nice photo into a photo that works for your business.

What clients say
Iwona Michalska
Yuliia is so easy to work with. She always makes me feel comfortable and surprise me with new ideas. I used her amazing skills many times during family functions and business branding. Highly recommend.
Tetiana Domina
I’m genuinely so happy with this photoshoot and the final result. ✨ Yuliia very delicately captured the exact vibe and feeling I wanted to communicate through my photos. She managed to reflect not only me as a person, but also the premium positioning of my brand in such an elegant and natural way. The whole experience felt very professional, calm, aesthetic, and thoughtful from start to finish. She has a beautiful eye for details, energy, light, and personal branding. These photos truly feel aligned with my vision, my work, and the atmosphere I want my audience to feel when they see my brand. Highly recommend Yulia if you want photos that feel both elevated and genuinely you. 🤍
Frequently asked questions
Do you travel to restaurants and cafes in York?
Yes, I am based in York and travel to restaurants, cafes and businesses across the city and North Yorkshire. I bring my own lighting and equipment, so I can work in your kitchen, dining room or studio space.
How long does it take to receive the final photos?
Standard turnaround for an edited gallery is around five to seven working days after the shoot. Monthly retainer clients get priority scheduling, so their delivery is usually faster.
Who owns the photos and how can I use them?
You receive full rights to use your images and videos across your menu, website and social media. If you plan to use the images in paid advertising or on packaging, we agree on extended licensing in advance.
How much retouching is included?
Every image receives professional editing with a natural finish, including colour, light and the clean up of small distractions. My style keeps the food looking real and appetising rather than artificial.
How much does food / brand photography cost in York?
The cost of food photoshoot depends on the length of the shoot, the number of dishes photographed, and how the images will be used. For brand photo I have hourly sessions packages, with half-day and full-day packages available. Packages typically starts from £250 for a short session and ranges up to £1,200+ for a full day shoot. Also mini-sessions available.
