Do photos from Yandex.Fotki take up space on Yandex Disk?

Your photos are stored on Yandex Disk in a separate folder that doesn't take up space on your Yandex Disk. If you move or copy your photos from it to any other folder, they will take up space on Yandex Disk. But the amount of free space will stay the same.
