Cherry Li's devotion to food photography is a natural union of her obsession with image-making and love of eating. After completing her BFA in photography from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, she started travelling the world in search of visual and culinary inspiration, but stayed in France for four years before moving on to Asia.

Cherry's meticulous attention to deliciousness and mastery of lighting has won her multiple professional awards and garnered the attention of numerous commercial and editorial clients, such as Anchor New Zealand, Tourism Authority of Thailand, Travel+Leisure, Condé Nast Traveller, GQ, Malaysia Airlines, Dragonair, Wall Street Journal, Theme, Wallpaper, The Cleaver Quarterly, Qatar Airways, British Airways and Australian Gourmet Traveller.

Cherry now bounces between Hong Kong and Los Angeles, and is always excited to shoot elsewhere.
