About Frank

 Born in the picturesque village of San Lauro in southern Italy, I spent most of my life in the vibrant city of Melbourne, Australia. Photography has been a constant companion throughout my journey, spanning an impressive 45 years. The roots of my passion trace back to 1975 when I constructed my own darkroom and immersed myself in the captivating process of shooting and developing black and white photos at my family home in West Brunswick.

While photography began as a cherished hobby, I ventured into various chapters of life, embracing roles such as Musician, Entrepreneur, Corporate Educator, Husband, and Father. Despite the diverse paths, my love for capturing moments persisted. It wasn't until four and a half decades later that my dormant passion for photography rekindled with newfound intensity.

Today, I am not only a seasoned award winning photographer but also a master photo enhancer, restorer, and retoucher. My focus has evolved beyond simply capturing good pictures; it is now centered on creating art through photography. Whether I'm immersed in the realms of portraits, landscapes, candid shots, street photography, or travel scenes, my goal remains unchanged — to encapsulate the enchantment of each visual moment and evoke the distinct emotions attached to every image. Welcome to the artistic narrative of Frank Romano, where every photograph tells a unique and captivating story.
