Biography
Paolo Cecchin’s studio is based in Milan. He has always wanted to be a painter.
Maybe this is one of the reasons why he personally retouches all the images that he produces, another reason is the ability to control each stage of the work with greater precision. He starts with a black canvas where light is allowed to tell the story through contrast and shadow. He is fascinated by light. It comes from his love of nature and sometimes hanging on the wall of a mountain watching the lights on the horizon. The fact is that being a photographer gives him a way to reconcile his passion for creativity, energy, adventure and storytelling.
