Isabella Cassini
New York - photographers
In 2014, Isabella Cassini won several awards at the International Photography Awards, including 1st, 2nd and 3rd places in 'Food', and 1st place in the overall 'Advertising' category (non-pro). She also took the Grand Prize for PDN’s food photography contest, 'Taste', catching the eye of judges from Bon Appetit, Saveur, Kinfolk Magazine, Modern Farmer and the Food Network Magazine.
Isabella's love for photography began when she picked up her first camera at age 15. Later, she landed a job with AtEdge (an exclusive photography publication showcasing the work of exceptional editorial and commercial photographers), as well as the esteemed Lucie Awards and IPA, allowing her to work with the industry's top talent and study their imagery intimately. This influenced her taste and eye, as Isabella had a growing desire to push the envelope and create cutting edge photos.
Much of her work, whether personal or commercial, stems from these early exposures; always striving to live up to the legendary photographers that came before her, and to make well-crafted and unique images.
