Jada [Parma, 2015]
Jada was easygoing and confident. She looked great in that black dress. With her I concentrated on theatrical poses and the theme of a union with nature. Enjoy these classy shots!
Letizia [Torrechiara, 2015]
This was supposed to be Letizia’s photo session but in the end we managed to get her boyfriend Paolo involved too. It was May and the hills around Torrechiara were spectacular as it was admiring the fire and passion in Letizia’s soul for music!
Valentina [Parma, 2015]
“For a time, I rest in the grace of the world, and am free” – Wendell Berry
Giovanni [Parma, 2015]
Giovanni had flair and his presence had a weight. During the shoot, we worked on expressiveness and I thought he would make a good actor. His B&W photos speak for themselves!
Chisato [Parma, 2015]
This was probably the photo shoot made in 2015 that I loved the most. I liked Chisato’s noble elegance, her shyness, her Japanese clothes and her grace.
Lucrezia [Parma, 2015]
Lucrezia was overwhelmingly beautiful and had powerful blue eyes. It was a pleasure to take some portraits of her in the studio. The theme was…celebrating beauty!
Katerzyna [Parma, 2015]
Katerzyna was an aspiring model. She had come from Milan and I couldn’t wait to take some shots of her! She was stunning, expressive, with fine clothes and she was very easygoing!
Giorgia [Parma, 2015]
She was one of a kind and I believe she still is. I valued her directness, spontaneity and her willingness to challenge herself. On top of that, she was very appreciative of my work!
Isabel [Parma, 2015]
“A baby is God’s opinion that the world should go on” – Carl Sandburg
I was delighted to have a photo session with this close family. Isabel was really active, she would not sleep: she knew that something unusual was happening around her and she wanted to be up to it! I could already tell that she would have developed a trustworthy, easy relationship with her mum. And she was obviously her dad’s girl!
Raffaella [Parma, 2015]
I think the lead I started from for this shooting was…a mysterious traveling maid from the middle ages or maybe it was a Fantasy reading! Well, it doesn’t really matter, as the sunset light was mystically breath-taking! Thank you, Raffa, for having posed for me!
Zeno [Parma, 2015]
Zeno was truly a gorgeous child (and still is now!), one of those you felt like stopping in the street to compliment him! He was the son of an old time friend and it was a pleasure for me to take some photos of him in the studio. The session went well, he was lively and was into it. I don’t remember how and why, but more than to the Teddy bear’s, he’ d be attracted to the rugby ball and the Z! Don’t ask me why I set up a dark background for this service…Enjoy these beautiful photo memories!
Melissa [Parma, 2015]
Taking pictures of babies in the studio can be difficult. You can nor predict know how they will react, whether they will be relaxed or a little tense, in the mood to play or hungry or tired. This photo shoot was not exactly an easy walk, even though I don’t recall that Melissa (who was 5 months old at the time and has beautiful big, dark eyes) cried, in fact she lasted in a tulle veil for several minutes! Enjoy this beautiful memories!
Massimo [Parma, 2015]
Massimo is the brother of Maria. I was looking to take portraits of a model in studio and she made his name. At the end, I was satisfied by the outcome and, during th shoot, I was impressed by his calm, humility and goodwill.
