Work Experience
Owner
"I have been passionate about photography since high school, when as a young, inquisitive, twelve year old student, my teacher introduced me to the magical world of the camera obscura.
I was captured and mesmerised by the mysterious and subtle transformation of developing film and this fascination still continues even though I am equally enthralled by the technological potential of digital photography.
Despite this fascination with the processes of manual development, I also like to indulge and explore the infinite possibilities and effects of advanced photography. Carefully harnessing digital techniques and computer art is integral to my photographic production.
Born and bred in Italy, I have more than 15 years professional experience in architecture, interior and lighting design. During this time, I founded an award-winning boutique architectural firm and project managed a multi-disciplinary design team. This is where I fell in love with the concept of merging fashion and architecture from the perspective of the photographer.
In 1997 I joined the Italian Architect Registration Board and in 2008 the Royal Institute of British Architects, when I settled in London. Living in one of the greatest and innovative world capitals, I am expanding my professional photography in the glamourous world of advertising with a new mission that combines fashion and architecture: I call this is my "Habitat & Fashion Imaginary".
I have a proven track record of exceptional project delivery and client satisfaction within a variety of business sectors; high end private residential, top fashion brand retail outlets, exposition/exhibition, office buildings, construction and industrial to corporate photography for annual reports, events and location work.
"Less is More", a quote extolled by the architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe underpins my artistic aesthetic, which is one of uncomplicated simplicity that can be captured in even my most complex compositions."
