Cherry Li
Los Angeles - Hong Kong - Beijing
From the age of 13, Cherry Li has devoted herself to the art of photography, spending all her time in the darkroom as soon as she could escape school each day. After completing her BFA in photography from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, she started travelling the world in search of visual inspiration. She found her second love, food, while living in Paris. From then on, photographing food became a natural union of her obsession with photography and love of eating.
In the ensuing 10 years, Cherry has won multiple awards and shot for 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.
