Vicolo del Bologna
John Michael Rivera
Description
Born in Rome and raised between Italy and the Philippines, John Michael is a self-taught travel, landscape, and car photographer currently studying mechanical engineering. His journey with photography began in middle school, sparked by a desire to capture the moments he lived. Remembering things has always mattered to him — and photography quickly became the most natural way to hold onto those memories. From smartphone snapshots to carrying a camera everywhere he went, documenting life became a quiet habit.
Today, that habit has evolved into a passion driven by perspective — showing the world not just what he sees, but how he sees it. His eye is drawn to angles and atmospheres that don’t always follow the rules, but that’s part of the charm. “Sometimes it’s unconventional,” he says, “but that’s just how my brain works.”
This image appears in Trope Rome.
