Still life & food photography that feels warm, honest, and full of care
Food Photographer and Product Photographer in California
For me, the essence of photography is storytelling capturing the qualities of a product through emotions and sensations.
About Me
Hi, I’m Liliia Zabotkina, a food and still life photographer based in California.
I help brands tell their stories through thoughtful, high-quality visuals that highlight the beauty and essence of their products.
My focus is on creating emotionally resonant images from clean skincare and flavorful food to crafted textures and still life compositions. I work from my home studio using professional lighting and carefully selected props to ensure every detail supports the brand’s identity and message.
With a background in design and storytelling, I bring both creativity and structure to each project. Whether it’s content for social media, e-commerce, or a campaign, my goal is to create photography that feels warm, intentional, and memorable.
Collaborations
I collaborate with beauty, food, and lifestyle brands through platforms like Cherrydeck, The Luupe, and Cohley.
Most recently, I photographed a product campaign for pH-D Feminine Health.
I’m always open to meaningful visual collaborations.

What Am I Shooting With?
I create my images in a cozy home studio, using a Sony mirrorless camera and professional lighting to achieve the perfect atmosphere and detail.

How It Works?
Every shoot is a creative collaboration. Here’s how the process usually goes:
1. Initial Inquiry
You share your product, goals, and any visual direction. We discuss the scope, timing, and what you’re hoping to achieve.
2. Concept & Planning
I develop ideas and reference images to align on the mood and style. We talk about angles, colors, props, and lighting.
3. Product Delivery
You ship your products to my home studio in California. Everything is handled with care and stored safely until the shoot.
4. Photoshoot
I photograph your products based on the approved concept. Previews can be shared during the process if needed.
5. Selection & Editing
You review the best images for final approval. Once confirmed, I retouch and finalize each image with attention to detail.
6. Delivery
You receive your high-resolution images via a secure online gallery, neatly organized and ready to use.
