Roberta Govoniof Photos By Roberta

I moved to Australia in 2013 to find myself and I started studying photography professionally. I love street, cultural, travel, and humanitarian photography. I like discovering the many differences, expressions, and stories that make up humanity. When I started traveling, I realized that I love discovering cultures and traditions. I am passionate about human rights, cultural issues, women and children's rights. I am pursuing photography professional with the goal of bringing these issues to the attention of the public. I feel I am a young soul, and I am excited and curious about other people. Photography introduces me to new people, as fascinating subjects who can make pictures talk, with just the power of a gesture or a look.

I have been working with diverse clients, including wedding, portrait, commercial, event photography, and photo documentaries for NGO's fighting against human trafficking in Thailand. I am a natural leader, and all my clients can testify about how I make them comfortable in front of the camera. I enjoy getting to know people, learning about what they do and what are their interests. I take pleasure in showing their emotions and strength in my pictures.

I am a photographer because I like diversity in life. Photography channels my energy and my emotion by expressing my vision through colors, lines, contrasts, and perspective.
The way I take photos is more about story telling. I love symbolism, and I often shoot objects that give me a sense of the space or felling of the moment. I like also candid photos of people and process them in high contrast, so the pictures can express the emotion of the moment.
I always try to understand the place where I am and create a story in my head. I notice details that can instill the experience I have in the moment. Photography to me means sharing my vision and my world with other people, trying to make other people understand the place where I have been, try to make a difference and make people think.
