Greno says he is grateful to his family for being able to afford his camera equipment, especially his father and fellow photographer Antonio.
“Without him, probably I wouldn’t be where I am right now,” he said.
Antonio said it was “impossible not to be proud” of his son.
“For me, this journey has been… more than photography, it’s been about watching my son discovering what he loves and, most importantly, having the courage to follow,” he told the BBC.
His son said: “I’m already living the dream. It’s just keeping it really consistent and if I can do it every day, perfect.”
