I am Halyna Vitiuk, an award-winning commercial food and product photographer. With an 8-year background in IT sales and marketing, I approach photography not just as a visual art, but as a strategic business tool.
For over 5 years, I have been creating high-impact advertising imagery for leading food brands in Ukraine and Romania. I provide a full-cycle production process: from concept development and custom set design to expert food styling. My goal is to create visuals that highlight your product's value and drive business results.
My commercial expertise has been recognized globally, including 1st Place at the Tokyo International Foto Awards (2025), the International Photography Awards (IPA), and the 500px Global Photography Awards.
FineArt photography
My art is about finding the extraordinary in the simple and creating magic out of the everyday. I create surreal, conceptual photographs where viewers can see their own stories - whether it's a vivid childhood flashback or a reflection of modern life.
The main characters of my work are everyday objects, food, and flowers. I look for unusual combinations and rethink their meanings: turning plates into medieval outfits, vegetables into funny animals, and daisies into ice cream. Color is my primary source of visual energy, which is why my artworks are filled with bright shades and bold contrasts.
Through my photography, I aim to transmit joy and inspiration, encouraging people to find magic in everyday things and make their own visual discoveries.
