Culling has always been the most painful aspect of the editing process, and it was even harder in this shoot, as I loved dearly almost ALL the shots that were taken in the studio! Alice was just being herself, a gorgeous and exuberant girl, whilst little Eddy was cheeky and cuddly as ever possible! Enjoy this happy family’s photo-memory!
Lorenzo had such a privileged relationship with both of his parents! It was a privilege for me to acknowledge it in with of my camera!
Ami and Giulio did not know each other, their moms did not know each other, but I knew their moms. I knew that if I asked them to bring their kids to the studio they would be happy. And they were indeed. It was something to observe how two children who had never met each other before, also thanks to their uncomplicated and playful nature, were able to stand together, to play and to have fun together in front of the camera. And the outcome was anything but obvious!! Thank you Francesca and Tomomi for sticking to my plan!
I have known Elena almost all my life and it has been a pleasure to see her family grow in number…to reach the number 5! Yes, 5 boys!! In the below pictures, you will see 2 of them, Pietro and Emanuele, with the super-speedy appearance of Riccardo who was not exactly in the mood for being photographed that day. And besides all, with a mum like theirs, fun is guaranteed!
After a few moments of hesitation, Simone fit in the studio atmosphere massively well. He clearly had a soft spot for his little brother Samuele, who seemed instead to enjoy a lot of free space around him… even though, when Simone approached him, he then would suddenly try to squeeze him and kiss him! A caring mamma Francesca and a mighty nonna Rossana accompanied these two little princes to their portrait session and we framed them in a few photos!
This family seemed so perfect and they were so well-prepared for their shooting, that you might think they were taken from a tv advert! Thank you, Olga & Co, for coming to the studio!
Arianna wasn’t intimated by the studio (or maybe just the first 3 minutes!). She was into every.thing that was happening. These candid shots reflect her personality. It was a pleasure to experience the bond between her and her parents!
The 1st session you have in the studio can be challenging. Based on my experience with kids, less is more. After a few “serious presidential” headshots (with his super cute red bowtie!), Luigi was delighted to play with a clothes peg, which was of course a good solution to gain his attention!
