“Innovative, creative, intelligent.“
The seeds of Gianvi's photographic journey were sown at the tender age of 11, capturing everyday moments with a keen eye for detail. A school trip to the zoo marked a turning point; it was here that Gianvi encountered the limitations of his phone camera, with chain-linked fences marring his animal shots. Encouraged by a teacher's advice, Gianvi transitioned to a DSLR camera. This step was more than just an upgrade; it was a gateway to the expansive world of professional photography. Gianvi embraced the learning curve, mastering everything from basic techniques to sophisticated photographic styles, setting his sights on becoming a celebrated professional.
Unveiling the Lens of Creativity
Gianvi's approach to photography is rooted in the belief that two photos of the same person will never look the same. This philosophy not only defines his artistic style but has also garnered a dedicated following and led to numerous brand collaborations. His ability to cast subjects in a new light caught the attention of British Vogue in 2021.
For the magazine, Gianvi was challenged to create a product photo within 48 hours, using just colored paper found in his house as a backdrop—a task that demonstrated his technical skill and creative vision under pressure. This proud achievement highlights Gianvi's ability to produce exceptional work within tight constraints, further solidifying his status in the world of professional photography.

Harnessing Technology for Artistic Freedom
Central to Gianvi's work are his trusted tools: the Sony A7IV, a 50mm f1.2GM lens, and the DJI Mini 3 Pro drone, each playing a crucial role in bringing his artistic visions to life. "My biggest challenges for power are my phone and my drone seemingly never being charged," Gianvi admits, pinpointing a common dilemma for photographers reliant on technology.

A memorable episode on a hike in the Peak District with his drone highlighted the importance of reliable power sources. This realization led Gianvi to the Omni 20+, a portable power solution that has since become indispensable in his photography toolkit.
The Omni 20+ not only ensures that his equipment remains charged but also offers the flexibility to work in any setting, a true testament to the freedom and convenience that modern technology can provide to creative professionals.

Staying Powered Up with Omnicharge
Gianvi's favorite feature of the Omni 20+ is its AC outlet, which he finds indispensable for powering set lights in places without convenient outlets. "The most significant way that it has improved my workflow is when editing on my laptop on the go; video and photo editing requires a lot of power and so being able to work away from an outlet for longer really improves my productivity," he explains.

This was vividly demonstrated during a Eurostar trip to Belgium, where despite a non-functioning seat outlet, the Omni 20+ allowed him to continue editing uninterrupted. Gianvi praises the device as "Innovative, creative, intelligent," reflecting its significant impact on his productivity and the broader scope of his photography career.
