From crazy to amazing, Gabito Rohh, one of the best kids photographers in the world.
Gabito Rohh, was born in Caracas to an Irish mother and Spanish father. As he grew up, Gabito struggled with TDAH, which is also known as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Battling the disorder for five years, with medication having no positive affect, he was finally able to gain relief, after moving to Houston, Texas. It was during his time here that he found a specialist who would spend the next six months teaching him how to focus his attention. With a renewed sense of hope and focus, he and his family continued to travel around the world with his father who served as Commercial Pilot. Growing into an adult, Gabito settled in Canterbury, UK where he attended its university, and after completing his studies, earned a Bachelor’s degree of Business Administration in Marketing.
With his degree in tow, he would go on to find work in the retail industry, gaining positions with companies such as Inditex, Primark and LCWaikiki. These roles would allow him the opportunity to again travel around the world, working in China, India, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Myanmar, Turkey, and many other locations. While continuing to work & photograph fashion shows hosted in Spain like FIMI, New York, United Kingdom, Itali like PITTI BIMBO and France, he came to the realisation that his passion was fixed on Fashion Photography.
Following this forever growing love, Gabito began working for a number of different children’s wear magazines as a Photographer. These included Germany’s Luna, Spain’s Petit Style & Divos, as well as Collezioni, BeKids & Runaway in Italy, as well as WGSN’s fashion website. Increasing his skill level, he also traveled and photographed the children’s fashion shows Pitti Bimbo, FIMI, CPM Moscow, and Children’s Club New York. While doing so, it didn’t take long for his work to be noticed by show organisers, which led him to began providing consultancy for set design, lighting, and production for events all around the globe.
In 2012, Gabito then launched his company, Happy Kids Media which focused on organising fashion shows for young models. In these shows, children have been able to model during notable events such as Pitti Bimbo, FIMI Spain, CPM Moscow, Petit Style Walking, IFEMA, and others. This has opened the door for Gabito to carry on his career, working with over 50 top children’s brands, organising fashion shows, providing image consulting, and fashion shoots for catalogs, look books, and published editorial pieces, both print and digital.
