Giorgio Toniolo

Giorgio Toniolo

Hi, I’m Giorgio Toniolo and I live in Prarostino, a small village in the hills of Turin province in the Piedmont region of North Italy. I was born in 1965 and I’m married with my wife Dina. Photography is my most important hobby …..I am passionate about all genres of photography, but the one I prefer to concentrate on is still life and conceptual…... Because of my job, I do not have much time to visit or travel in new places, but with still life and conceptual photography and also some self portrait …..I can find some spare time and devote myself to creating new concepts without leaving home. I am a quality manager in a ball bearings company not very far of my town for over 36 years, and I remember that my first paycheck when I was very young (16) was used to buy a reflex camera..an Olympus OM2n. Since then, photography has been pure passion.
