Ottavia Giola approaches photography as a means of exploring the emotional and psychological landscapes of human experience. Her work delves into themes of vulnerability, desire, and self-perception, often blurring the lines between personal narrative and universal emotion. With a strong emphasis on portraiture, editorial storytelling, and atmosphere, her images capture fleeting moments of authenticity where tension and beauty coexist. Ottavia is originally from Turin, Italy. In 2021 she graduated at IAAD - Istituto d’Arte Applicata e Design in Communication Design. During the same year, she started working as a art director at Armando Testa advertisement agency involved in international campaigns such as Peuterey - new collection and Lavazza Calendar “YES, We’re Open!”. In the meantime she started working as a freelance photographer with an interest in portraiture and fashion. In 2023 she won the Executive Director Fellowship and attended the International Center of Photography One-Year Certificate Program in Creative Practices, New York City. 

Currently, she is based in New York City.
