Autumn Wedding in Tuscany Autumn Wedding in Tuscany November 2, 2019. The last wedding of my 2019 wedding season. Rain, wind, fog... yes, a typical autumn day. But it was perfect for what I've in mind. Telling a story is not so easy, through a viewfinder of a camera it is even more difficult, but that's why this year I focused more on capturing the atmosphere, the air I breathe in the wedding, rather than the "WOW" photo end in itself.

Unconventional Portrait Photographer Unconventional Portrait Photographer. "If you have an apple and I have an apple and we exchange apples then you and I will still each have one apple. But if you have an idea and I have an idea and we exchange these ideas, then each of us will have two ideas." (George Bernard Shaw) This is the leitmotif of my work, of my passion. "Sharing" is important, it is essential to grow as people and as professionals. This is why a year ago I called my friend and colleague Roberto Panciatici to share with him this experience. Just me, him and sweet Camilla, our fantastic model. We just wanted to play with he ...
