Yvonne De Rosa (born Naples 1975) is an Italian photographer.
Yvonne De Rosa originally graduated in Political Science, before her passion for photography led her to relocate to London, where she studied at Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design. As a Fine Art Photographer, she has subsequently exhibited to considerable acclaim[1][2].
In 2006 she was awarded the “Women International Prize in Photography” and shortlisted for the “Association of Photographers Open”, whilst her series “Afterdark” was awarded first prize in Fine Art Landscapes at the International Photography Awards (IPA) the following year. Also in 2007, her debut book ‘Crazy God’ won an award from the World Health Organisation and was shown at the World Conference on Poverty and Health in Venice[3][4].
Her work was commissioned and showcased as part of “One Gallery, One Night: Emerging Women in Photography” Exhibition, sponsored by Kodak[5].
She is a founding member of the group “24”, which exhibited work in unlikely places, such as Soho and Trafalgar Square.
She currently lives in London, where she works as a freelance photographer.
