Family portraits [Parma, 2026]

I took some portraits of this lovely family last weekend and I’ve been on tenterhooks for a week… I used two analogue cameras, the Canon EOS 850 and the AT-1. I’d already used the EOS 850 (which is fully automatic) with good results, whereas the AT-1 was a complete unknown to me. To be frank, I’d NEVER used a fully manual film camera before! So before I started, I was quite nervous…Luckily, the girls were two natural models; the older one was spontaneous and calm, and I loved the way the little one posed in front of the camera, she was so at ease, you can tell that she enjoyed it, just like a real actress!

Cristiano and Maria, thank you for the trust you’ve given me, and see you soon for a summer series of shots!

Her attitude!
