Huiyi Li, a fashion photographer working across still and moving images. My practice is grounded in fashion photography while remaining attentive to the structures that shape how bodies, garments, and images are made legible within the industry.
My work often begins with the body-not as a site of expression, but as something shaped by posture, framing, clarity, and visual control. I am interested in how fashion imagery produces standards of correctness and usability, and how these standards can be tested through photographic decisions rather than illustrated through narrative. Blur, obstruction, temporal slippage, and subtle loss of control recur in my work as practical strategies rather than stylistic gestures.
Alongside conceptual development, I place strong emphasis on execution. I am experienced in editorial and collaborative shoots, comfortable working within real production constraints, and familiar with the full workflow from visual research and shooting to post-production and final delivery. My technical background includes studio and location photography, film and digital processes, darkroom practice, and professional post-production using Photoshop, Lightroom, Capture One, InDesign, and Illustrator.
Rather than separating experimentation from professionalism, my approach treats photography as a working system—one that requires both visual sensitivity and reliability. I am interested in fashion photography not only as an image outcome, but as a process shaped by collaboration, repetition, and decision-making under constraint.
