About Franco Smith

Born in Antwerp in 1983 and raised in Milan, I am an italian-english photographer interested in travel photography, landscape architecture and life stories. I started to approach photography when I was ten years old using my parents Canon AT-1 and I found this media so fascinating I decided to involve it in my life.
At the high school I entered the magic door of the darkroom where the childhood play started to comes to life until I get to La Scala Theatre Academy where I took part in a Stage Photography Master.
After studies I started to work as a photographer assistant and then as a freelance photographer. Traveling have contributed to the idea of developing a language to recounting links between places and people, to create a sort of photographic storytelling.
