KRISTY SNELL
Kristy
Kristy creates images for food brands with a distinctive blend of creativity and technical expertise. Originally from South Africa, she began her career as a food stylist before venturing into directing, driven by a desire to do more than simply arrange plates.
She studied film at the University of Cape Town alongside English Literature - two disciplines that continue to shape her thoughtful and visually rich approach to food storytelling.
With a keen eye for the playful side of food communications, Kristy blends quirky art direction with bold block colours, unexpected angles, and a fresh, contemporary aesthetic. Her deep technical knowledge allows her to craft beautiful, dynamic films that feel both refined and full of personality. She has had the pleasure of working with major brands such as McDonald’s, KFC, Knorr, and Tropicana.
