About Ian

Professional photographer for over 25 years, Ian Abela has primarily flourished in the fashion and advertising industries. He has a particular gift for portraiture and a unique ability to capture the personality of his models. His exceptional mastery of light allows him to produce high-quality shots.
It wasn't until 2020 that he took advantage of a forced break to train in drone piloting. This new tool allows him to broaden his field of vision and create unprecedented images. Ian doesn't just settle for aerial shots but pushes the boundaries to capture striking staged scenes.
