Biography

Jacopo Moschin is a portrait and documentary photographer based in NYC. His quest is to portray real characters in the realm of fashion. He is constantly looking for the unimportant frames that reveal the moments lost in-between, filled with raw and spontaneous emotions. His warm approach to his subject is predominant over the context. Through powerful but subtle imagery he exposes strength and vulnerability, light and darkness. His practice gives a depth and substance to the editorial and commercial image-making. His work has been featured on Kinfolk Magazine, i-D, Vogue USA, Vogue Spain, Amica, Style, Financial Times, Elle, Interview Magazine and for clients such as Bally, Levi's, Dolce& Gabbana, Ann Taylor, Daya by Zendaya, John Hardy, Vhernier, Dior, Louis Vuitton and others.
