Profile
My
passion for Photography touches different aspects of the reality
we live in. From portraits to a surreal vision of the body, I create
images that stand for themselves, being at the same time part of
a wider photographic project. I enjoy interacting with the subject
of my photos, in particular when it is unknown to me, since this
adds sparks to my desire to explore it even more. I forget about
the camera that becomes just a recording device of what happens
between me and my subject. I try to express its peculiar personality
with my creativity, passion and personal point of view.
Being an Italian based in London has allowed me to have my work
published in various national and international magazines and newspapers.
I won different Awards, as the First Prize in the AGFA International
Award (1999), the Silver Merit in the BIPP National Print Award
(2000) and the RPS International Print Exhibition (2001).
I am currently working as a portrait and reportage freelance photographer
in London and Milan. I speak fluently Italian, English, Spanish
and French that allows me to interact with my favorite subject (people)
in a more personal and intimate way.
