About me
Stella Del Curto
I’m Stella Del Curto, an underwater photographer and technical diving instructor based in Switzerland.
Photography became a significant part of my life in 2005, when I bought my first DSLR camera. Two years later, I took my first steps into diving in the cold waters of Lake Maggiore. Bringing these two passions together was a natural evolution.
Over the years, I have developed a particular passion for photography in demanding environments — from caves and deep wrecks to reefs and walls at depth. These places require more than simply creating an image: they demand planning, awareness, technical skills and the ability to adapt.
Through my images, I want to tell the stories of places usually hidden beneath the surface — and sometimes beneath the ground. From natural landscapes to traces of history, I explore seas, caves, rivers and lakes looking for what is worth discovering and sharing.
