What I photograph

«I am an Italian photographer working between Lisbon and Naples. My work draws from cinema's visual grammar — light shaped with intention, frames composed for narrative, color graded the way a film is finished. I photograph people who want a portrait that feels like a still from their own story, brands who need imagery that holds attention longer than a scroll, places that deserve to be seen from above and the abandoned interiors that hold Europe's other history.»

About

The story behind the lens

I moved to Lisbon for the light. What started as side projects became a practice spanning portraits, aerial and commercial work for clients across Portugal and Europe. Every shoot starts the same way — with a conversation, then a plan, then the kind of patience that lets the image find itself.
