About

My Name is Kobi Wolf. I'm  a 37 year old  Israeli based photographer living in Tel Aviv. After graduating from the Geographical Photography Academy in Tel Aviv, Israel, I embarked on an eight year long journey in Asia and Africa. During my journey I developed my  photography skills  and was able to explore my professional talents to their fullest. Upon my return to Israel, I continued to gain experience in portrait and documentary photography.
My photographs have been published in various Israeli magazines and I've also participated in several exhibitions and earned prizes for my work. I try to stimulate the imagination and invite the viewer to take part in the story of my anthropological journey though the eye of my lens.
I have documented the Israeli Palestinian conflict, the refugee exodus from Africa to Israel and am now involved in several  Humanitarian documentary projects. I also work as a news photojournalist for local papers.
