Itti Karuson has a unremitting passion for photography. Early in his career he won the best folio award at the Photography School of Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Australia. This was while also coming to grips with a foreign culture and the spoken and written words of a new and unforgiving language. Graduating in Melbourne, Batchelor of Arts –Photography, he then applied for and was awarded a scholarship to the prestigious Parsons School of Design in New York City. He graduated with a Masters Degree in Fine Arts. It is in this New York environment, the toughest school for all the arts, that Itti became the skilled and professional photographer he is today.
Home now in Bangkok Itti has intellectually and creatively matured to the point of possessing a deeply intuitive sensitivity to his clients needs. What the client imagines Itti takes into realms of unbelievable and stunning creativity. All projects are demanding but none subdue Itti Karuson’s energy and imagination nor escape his enthusiasm and good humour. His fashion and commercial photography has been published in many magazines including Love, Praew, Playground, Bride, Playboy, Wedding Creation, Hair and Beauty, M Magazine, I am Guy, Fire, Sugar High, MemoVery as well as commercial trade journals. Clients include Ducati, Chivasom, Grand Holiday, Wacoal, Kullastree, Wella, Miso, DCash, Rita Wilcox and Asiasoft as well as offering exposure to Mikimoto, Gomme de Garcon, Bodyglove, Ripcurl, Emilio Pucci and many other product brands.
Itti’s work is on constant show internationally: in homes around the world is displayed the glorious and happy moment of a couple’s commitment to love each other – their wedding. “I am inspired by romance and its expression in wedding photography. When I have captured the marvelous emotions of the most memorable moment of a couple becoming one by way of marriage, what comes to the photo is, not only their hearts united, but also their minds and souls. As for me, it is very great honour to express their happiness in valuable images which last a lifetime and beyond”. Itti Karuson
