About Ido Izsak

Ido Izsak discovered his passion for photography at the age of 13.
With money from his bar mitzvah, he bought his first camera, majored in photography in high school, and later served as a military photographer. After completing his service, he became the assistant to Israel’s top fashion photographer, Ron Kedmi, and eventually built a successful career as a fashion photographer himself.

Ido later fell in love with mobile photography and founded his own content production company, IDOCVM, which creates Instagram-ready visual content for leading brands including Samsung, Castro, Golbary, Ramat Aviv Mall, Agadir, Carolina Lemke, Super-Pharm, and more.

“The kid who once peeked into the photography classroom instead of the mechanics lab,” he says, “now runs a company that lives and breathes visual storytelling.
I found what I’m best at — smartphone photography: real, raw, alive, and instant.
When you find what you’re truly great at, that’s when the magic happens.”
