ABOUT

Meet the Photographer

Hi, I’m Omonikike Gloria Mezzanotte, a London-based award-winning photographer with a deep passion for culture, identity, and storytelling through images. With a degree in photography and years of hands-on experience, I've had the privilege of working alongside industry talents like Jamie Morgan and Sam Griffiths, and with agencies and groups such as Mot Management in Barcelona, D1 Models, and BDYD Dance Group.

My work often explores themes of cultural identity and self-acceptance. Being both Italian and Nigerian, my own life journey has shaped the lens through which I view the world. I use photography not only as a creative outlet but as a tool for connection, helping others feel seen, understood, and celebrated.

I hold a postgraduate degree in Intercultural Counselling Practice and Processes, and I’m currently pursuing a Master’s in Social Work. These studies continue to deepen my understanding of human behavior and strengthen the way I approach my creative work, allowing me to engage with clients and subjects in more meaningful, empathetic ways.

At my studio, creativity, authenticity, and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do. Whether it’s a portrait session, a fashion editorial, or a personal project, I bring care, curiosity, and a strong sense of narrative to every shoot.
