Gabriela Mazzarello (b.1994) is an American photographer based in Genova that grew up between Mexico and the United States. Her work spans landscape, sports, wedding and documentary photography, with an emphasis on precision, discipline and the quiet architecture of natural and human forms. She holds a degree in Global Economics from UC Santa Cruz, where her passion for photography took root, later shaped by mentorship from some of the most relevant contemporary photographers in United States, Mexico and Italy.

Gabriela's documentary project "I Pescatori di Genova" has been exhibited at the "Festival Internazionale della Fotografia", a non-profit association for social promotion dedicated to emerging photographers and young leadership in the medium, of which she is an active member.

Project

"I Pescatori di Genova" documents a Genovese family of artisans who live through sustainable fishing by capturing the passion and hardship behind an ancient trade increasingly pushed to the margins in Liguria by the growing dominance of the cruise industry
