Since a young age, he has been very keen on travelling and discovering new places and cultures, which led him to study in the field of hospitality.

He has been devoted to urban and street photography ever since. Art became his life and love. Ever since, Yuliy has shot in over 40 countries across four continents. He never really intended to pursue a professional career in photography; instead, he decided to continue with his career in the hospitality industry, where he manages and continues to do so some very renown high-level hotels and restaurants in Bulgaria and abroad. This gave him the freedom and ability to work on his own photographic projects and ideas and to follow his own artistic path without the need to comply with other people’s ideas or clints’ needs. His work in the culinary industry inevitably led him to experiment in the field of culinary photography, where he quickly established his name, and his projects are well known all over the world. He is currently one of the most prominent creative culinary photographers, with a distinctive style and technique. Yuliy’s talent for spotting the details and seeing the world from a different perspective made his pictures stand out very quickly.
