Juan Carlos Verona (b. 1984, Spain) is a London-based photographer and filmmaker whose work moves fluidly between portraiture and documentary.

Self-taught and instinctively curious, he creates imagery that balances technical precision with sense of atmosphere and narrative.

His portraits are marked by thoughtful lighting, simplicity, and emotional depth, often revealing more than just the surface of his subjects.

Over the past decade, he has collaborated with international brands, record labels, and cultural institutions—including Adidas, Sainsbury’s, Universal Records,Sony Music and British Airways—while maintaining a personal practice rooted in fine art and independent publishing.

Beyond commissioned projects, Juan Carlos is the co-founder of ZERO.NINE Magazine, an online platform dedicated to photography and subculture stories.

He has won The AOP Fashion Photography Awards in 2017 and 2019, plus being nominated various times since 2014 to 2025.
