My name is Gian Paolo Vanni, I was born and raised in the Tuscan hills but since I was a child I have always had a great passion for the sea. After taking the dive master's license I began underwater photography, thus discovering a whole new world that has completely turned my life upside down.
From small subjects to large cetaceans, I create naturalistic experiences all over the world bringing photography enthusiasts with me to take crazy shots. I make underwater video for Italian television, taking people to discover wonderful places. At the moment I am using a Canon R5, and a Canon R5 Mark II cameras with the Ikelite Underwater Housing.
