About

Iván Riesgo is a Spanish freelancer photographer who changed his life to dedicate himself entirely to his passion. Adventurous since birth, Ivan’s work primarily focusses on natural history, climate change, humanity and cultural heritage.

His passion for photography developed naturally as a way to portray the love he feels for the world we live in. His personal style has been constructed around paintings, portraits and landscape photography. His unique, creative, painterly vision of reality.

He found in photography the perfect tool to share his romantic and pictorial.

Nature has always had deep roots within him, as it is in nature where he feels himself free. His passion for the planet has only grown since he first visited Scotland, and this country has gained a special place on his heart.

Being conscious of the environmental problems that desolate the world, Ivan is a true advocate for conservation. He genuinely believes that conservation starts with education and photography is his medium to raise awareness about the topic.

Currently based in London, Iván is also the co-founder of Lift Me Up, his parallel company created to raise awareness of human rights and history. To connect the continuous and endless fight that humankind has suffered over territory and natural resources, he partnered up with Oihane Azcona. Together, they have decided to travel across 5 continents, to portray the history and similarities of different ancient cultures, using their photography as a witness of time.
