About me

Iliana Kanellopoulou (born in Greece) is an internationally published fashion photographer currently based in London.


Work

Iliana’s work is a unique exploration of identity, captured through the lens of nostalgia. With innate curiosity she delves into the multifaceted dynamics of youth, culture, and history. Her lens becomes a bridge between the past and the present, as she documents the lives and experiences of the people around her, presenting a factual reality that is both raw and compelling.

What sets Iliana’s work apart is her ability to challenge societal norms and question established beliefs. Through her lens, she dismantles stereotypes and beauty standards that have long oppressed and devalued individuals. Her photographs serve as a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit. Each image tells a story, asking concrete questions that resonate with the very core of our existence.

At the heart of her artistic expression is the medium of film. Embracing the timeless quality of film photography, she creates a visual narrative that is both evocative and authentic. The tangible nature of film adds depth to her work, enhancing the emotional resonance of her photographs.
