Yuriy Nosach, the winner of the "Do Your Business" business idea competition, has opened the first professional photo studio PhotoStudioHub in Kaniv. This is reported by MHP-Mironivska Poultry Farm, according to UNN.

The studio has three basic locations for diverse filming, which can be supplemented and diversified at the request of the client. You can work here with Yuriy himself, or rent the studio to work with other photographers. In addition, the space allows you to create creative photo content for businesses, brands, etc.
"Most of the photography in Kaniv is done on the street. In fact, this is not surprising, because our city is very picturesque, and there are many natural locations and incredible views. However, the weather is not always favorable for this, but a professional studio means high-quality beautiful atmospheric photos at any time of the year," Nosach is convinced.
In total, more than 175 thousand UAH were spent on the project, of which 100 thousand UAH were grants from the foundation, and the rest were Yurii's personal investments. As part of the investment, the studio was renovated, furniture was purchased, and the necessary professional equipment, including lighting, was purchased.
"Our studio is about coziness and comfort, where Kaniv residents and guests can take beautiful photos that will delight and give positive emotions for a long time. I've been doing photography for four years, and for me personally, the opening of the studio is not only an expansion of opportunities and services, but also a significant step in my professional development. So, I am grateful to the MHP-Hromada Foundation for supporting my initiative," says Nosach.
It should be added that thanks to the "Do Your Business" competition, 6 projects to support local business ideas are being implemented in Kaniv district in 2023.
