Photographer Tokyo JapanPhotographer Tokyo Japan. My name is Giancarlo Marino. I’m a fashion, editorial, beauty and swimwear photographer in Tokyo Japan.

My work has been described as classic, romantic and clean. My photos are hard and sometimes dramatic, therefore these are all the qualities that make up the perfect image and I try to nail it every time.

I was born in Napoli, Italy. I picked up my first camera at age 12. It was a Kodak camera. I bought with the money I saved from my weekly allowance. I began photographing the beauty that surrounded me in my hometown. In high school I began to take interest in the beautiful Italian designers. I saw them in fashion magazines such as Vogue and W magazine. Being 100% Italian it was love at first sight. I was famous fashion and celebrity photographer Jerry Avenaim’s assistant for 1 year. Sometimes I use many of his advises,  as a result I always achieve the best results when I shoot.

As I started working as a freelancer photographer, I was part of advertising campaigns such as Armani, Diesel, Banana Republic. I work with magazines such as Elle and Vogue. In the start I worked in the Italian and US fashion industry for over 20 years. After that I moved to Tokyo Japan. I work mostly in the Asian fashion market and I currently reside and work as a Photographer Tokyo Japan

I always loved traveling the world, in fact I have been almost anywhere. My work gives me the opportunity to travel for free all the time and stay at the most amazing hotels. My hobbies are soccer (Napoli is my team), tennis, surf, riding my 2 Harley’s, drinking and dining with friends and movies. I love my family. I enjoy my work fully and I love cats and dogs.


Back in 2013 at the Cannes Film festival I was voted:

SOME CLIENTS TESTIMONIALS for Giancarlo Marino Photographer Tokyo Japan:

Giancarlo Marino is truly an outstanding photographer (and wonderful person). He has an almost mystical ability to capture the true nature of fashion. We’d recommend him to anyone!  – ELLE KOREA

Giancarlo Marino’s photos are STUNNING!  Therefore thank you so, so much. They are all just spectacular. We are really grateful. You are just amazing, Giancarlo Marino. Just the most talented photographer in Tokyo Japan. We can’t thank you enough for letting us your talent with us. Thank you!  – ZARA KOREA

Thank you ever so much. You have exceeded everyone’s expectations at our March editorial photo shooting! Thanks a million” – Harper’s Bazaar Singapore

Ii was so amazing shooting with Giancarlo! I came out from New York to start my modeling portfolio. I love how he captures the inner self of an aspiring model. Even if I had no experience Giancarlo has the ability and patience to direct a total beginner. He knows how to make her look like she has been modeling for years. He is very thorough and planned every look with me over the phone so that he was totally prepared when I arrived. We shot many different looks as well as some sexy bikini shots. I felt very comfortable with Giancarlo as he was very professional. His make up artist is wonderful. She is there the whole time touching up and changing looks. Definitely worth the flight out to Tokyo to shoot with such a talented photographer. – Jenny H. / model

My photography workshop with Giancarlo Marino was an exceptional experience. I flew out from California and we packed an amazing amount of shooting. For me, what I took most out of the two days was really comprehending Giancarlo’s lighting techniques and how he directs and gets what he needs from his models. I strongly recommend this course to anyone wishing to enhance his or her skills. My experience with Giancarlo was absolutely beneficial to my photography. I feel lucky to have learned so much useful information in these two days. It would have taken months or years to learn this on my own through constant trial and error. In less than a years time I am now shooting paid tests for some of the prominent modeling agencies in San Francisco. I owe so much of this to Giancarlo as he has been a great teacher, mentor, critic and friend.”
