From Wikipedia:

Photographer Mariano Vivanco was born in Lima, Peru. in 1975, and was raised around the world, including Peru, New Zealand as well as the UK. He is the son to H. Wiliam Vivanco-Mackie, a highly noted geneticist scholar of animal reproduction and genetic improvement.

He studied at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Art, Australia, and started to photograph professionally in Auckland, New Zealand.

He subsequently moved to London in the year 2000. Vivanco got his start in the industry by making model portfolios, something he later turned into a book project, 95 Chapel Market. Within a few years, Vivanco was regularly shooting for magazines around the globe.

Mariano Vivanco got his start in the fashion industry by shooting portraits of models in London. After countless shots and gaining notice in the London fashion scene, he began to gain work for a new contact he made, the magazine Dazed & Confused.

In 2001, while working for Dazed & Confused, Vivanco met stylist Nicola Formichetti whom he worked with to shoot countless covers for the highly-esteemed British magazine.

Vivanco has also published seven books for the Dolce & Gabbana label: Calcio (2003), which was the first book of its kind to capture the emergence of the soccer superstar, Milan (2004), Nationale (2006) and Milan Family. In 2006, he was also asked to shoot the French rugby team for the Dieux Du Stade Calendar for 2007. David Gandy (2008), a print calendar for Dolce & Gabbana, and Ninety Five Chapel Market (2008). The recent publication, Uomini (2011), has received international recognition.^[9][10]. His most recent publication, "David Gandy by Dolce and Gabbana" reveals an intimate portrait of model David Gandys career and his close relationship with the fashion house Dolce & Gabbana (June 2011).^[11]

In 2007, Vivanco held his debut solo exhibition at the Print Space Gallery in east London, supported by Dazed and Confused. Here, he exhibited two innovative editorial stories produced for Dazed entitled Cult and Artist. His second exhibition followed quickly, this time in Milan's Gold Restaurant. Here, he exhibited his images of the model David Gandy for Dolce & Gabbana's 2008 calendar, which fused the classical ideal of Michelangelo's David with modern ideals of masculinity.^[12]

Later, in 2008, Vivanco published Ninety Five Chapel Market.^[13] A retrospective look at his first years in London, documenting the likes of Sienna Miller, David Gandy and Lily Cole to name a few, at the start of their careers.

In the fall of 2011, Vivanco photographed Emma Watson for i-D magazine No.314. He also shot model David Gandy for the Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 11/12 Eyewear Campaign. Vivanco also photographed Rick Genest for the Thierry Mugler French fashion house revival in 2011. Vivanco, teamed with Nicola Formichetti and Lady Gaga produced a viral video titled "Anatomy of Change," featuring a remix of Lady Gaga's song "Scheiße."^[14] Later that year, Vivanco shot the pop chart-topping and fashion icon Lady Gaga for the British i-D magazine's Exhibitionist Issue, featuring clothing from the Thierry Mugler fashion house.^[15]
