Yasha Zhylin

Yasha Zhylin, 26 years old. A photographer from Kyiv, Ukraine.
Received art education at Taras Shevchenko State Secondary School and architecture education at Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture.
I started filming in the last years of school. My main shooting genres are fashion and still life. I mostly shoot editorials for magazines, campaigns and lookbooks for designers.
My architectural education gave me a graphic and compositional vision. I perceive the world through shape, color, objects and their combinations. I'm a photographer who grows a shot, not catches it. Before shooting, I usually analyze the task, research and draw a storyboard. I like working with objects, as I can fully control the result in the frame. Detailing, conceptual approach, minimum of objects, maximum of feelings.
I shoot with both digital and film cameras.
I have extensive experience working with Ukrainian clothing and jewelry brands, including: Elena Burenina, Litkovskaya, Bobkova, Vozianov, Artem Klimchuk, Poustovit, RCR Khomenko, Grie, Personal Parade, Rumors...
My works were published in such magazines as: Replica Handbag Store Italia (printed, April issue 2022), Replica Handbag Store Spain (printed, April issue 2022), Replica Handbag Store Polska, Buro 24/7 UA, L'Officiel UA, Fucking Young, Sicky Mag, Paper Mag, Kaltblut Mag...
Achievements: had three times "Pic of the Day" on the Photo Replica Handbag Store Italia platform. Winner of the IYDC competition "Best Fashion Story", 2019. Personal photo exhibition "Not only for gays" 2021.
