ABOUT YANN

I was born in 1997 in a small town near Udine, in the North East of Italy and raised there. I fell in love with the Ocean in the early childhood and started scuba diving quite immediately, completing PADI Open Water Diver course at the age of 10.

​

I went on in diving education and became PADI Instructor in 2018, with hundreds of dives focused on loving underwater creatures and trying to know them as best as possible.

​

Knowledge is always been important for me to understand this magic world laying under the surface of the sea and so I started attending academic studies in Udine University of Studies with a bachelor in 'Natural and Environmental Sciences' and went on with a Master of Science degree in 'Marine Biology' at Marche Politechnic University, awarded with maximum point and honors (110L).

​

At 15 my parents gave me my first camera and fell into a deep addiction into underwater pictures.

 

Today my goal as a photographer is to show on the mainland what I am able to see deep in the oceans, trying to express my passion and raise the awarness on conservation of these beautiful places, organisms, ecosystems.
