Ivan Bellaroba Photographer/Filmmaker

Ivan is a photographer and filmmaker. His images are meant to unfold stories and emotions, to explore life and human feelings. Or, as he likes to say, they're just for fun, because in the end life is just a ride. And what a ride! Born in Italy, Ivan has studied Literature, Sociology and Aesthetics at the University of Turin, was short listed in the Third Literary Prize Repubblica di San Marino, won a classical guitar national contest and played as an actor in a short film and two theatre plays. Ivan started his career as a reporter for a local newspaper, to then move into IBM where he worked for 7 years as project manager. In 2004 he also developed a business plan to create an African culture promotion centre for the Turin City Council and Torino Internazionale Committee. Based in London since 2007, Ivan now works as a full time photographer and filmmaker and he is the Creative Director of Resolute Studio, a media production company.
