Golden Lion Photography
Hi there, I’m Gabriel Rizzo, a published portrait, dance, and live event photographer in Boston, MA.
I shoot mostly on-location, both indoor and outdoor, however, I also own a portable Linco, Inc Photo Studio Softbox Light Kit for studio quality sessions with a backdrop.
With a BSA in Film studies from Emerson College and having taken photography courses during the ‘dark room/film developing’ era, I’ve always loved the art of visual storytelling through the transcendence of our human element.
