MELLOBLOCCO TEAM 2025 - The photographer: GIACOMO TONOLI

For the second year running Giacomo Tonoli is the official photographer of Melloblocco

‘Follow the event as a reportage’ and “Also focus on the valley on nature and what we should respect (!!): the environment!” are his words.

Giacomo is an environmental guide who accompanies people to discover nature, with the aim of telling about it, explaining it and bringing it to life in an authentic way. He works mainly in the Venetian Pre-Alps, an area he knows deeply and tries to enhance through hiking, photography and beekeeping. His activity is driven by his passion for the natural world and his desire to specialise more and more in the knowledge of wildlife and the ecosystems that surround us.

Giacomo Tonoli is attracted by light and people. London gives him the opportunity to realise that photography could become a real job. Already during his time in London he began to travel to many countries such as, America, Asia and Europe. He prefers adventure and a sense of freedom, which he is able to experience by travelling without a precise destination. All his travels are a function of projects or ideas that also lead him to risk his life. In 2015, he moves to Barcelona, where he finds another reality that completely captivates him. He gets closer and closer to the world of climbing thanks to friends who get him involved in order to have some photos to show off on social media. Doing everything with passion he creates a portfolio of photos of sport climbing, mountaineering and skiing, these are the activities that currently interest him the most. Since 2019 he has been working with Salewa and many other brands are contacting him for content (photos and videos) in the outdoor field. Giacomo is always looking for a story to tell through his images.

And this search will never end!
