My name is Duilio I was born in Roma. I studied to become a professional photographer when I moved in UK getting a foundation degree at London College of Fashion and
B.A. (Hons) in fine art photography and multimedia at Westminster University, London UK.

After my degree I trained by Kodak and worked at Fuji as a fine art printing consultant.
