GET TO KNOW WE BETTER 

Q1.  If you were a cartoon character, which one would you be ?

G: I’d be Speedy Gonzales. I’ve always been curious, energetic, and sunny — running through life with a smile, a camera, and a love for discovering new places and people.
Fast feet, big heart, and always chasing the next adventure. ¡Ándale ándale!
E: I'd have to go with Bugs Bunny. He's witty, a master of disguise, and he always seems to have a carrot handy – the perfect photographer's snack!

Q2.  What's your go-to dance move at weddings ?

G: It’s a subtle head nod at first… then maybe a shoulder roll. But if the DJ drops a classic ’90s track, I might just end up doing a full-on spin with the camera still in hand.
E: I call it the 'Shutter Shuffle.' It's a mix of quick footwork and pretending my camera is a microphone. It's like a one-man wedding band performance!

Q3.  What's your spirit animal, and why is it a perfect match ?

G: Definitely a hawk. Always curious, always observing, always ready to soar. Like in photography, I love seeing the bigger picture, spotting the small details.
Plus, flying? Yes, please.
E: I'm convinced I'm a meerkat. Always alert, always curious, and I can't resist popping up to capture those candid moments, just like they do.

Q4.  If your life was a sitcom, what would its title be ?

G: “Caffeine, Cameras & Chaos” A travel-loving photographer trying to balance art, family, and flights — fueled by espresso, inspired by people, and constantly chasing the light (and his son around the house).
E: The title would be 'Shutter Speed Shenanigans,' and I think Jim Carrey would play me. He's got the energy to keep up with all the hilarious mishaps in my life!

Photography has been my lifelong passion and calling, allowing me to express myself and connect with the world in a way words could never capture. From a young age, I found solace and inspiration in freezing moments that convey emotions and tell stories without uttering a single word. 

Photography has been my lifelong passion and calling, allowing me to express myself and connect with the world in a way words could never capture. From a young age, I found solace and inspiration in freezing moments that convey emotions and tell stories without uttering a single word. 

With over 12 years behind the lens, I’ve learned that great wedding photography is about more than light and composition, it’s about trust, presence, and emotion. I believe in images that feel alive, honest, and timeless.
I approach every wedding with an editorial eye and a documentary soul: calm when needed, invisible when it matters, always ready to capture the moments you’ll remember and the ones you didn’t even see.
I travel because I love meeting people, discovering new cultures, and witnessing the many ways love is expressed. I love great coffee, good food, and most of all, my family: my wife Ida and our son Giorgio, my home, wherever I go.
I bring all of this into my work: a trained eye, an open heart, and a quiet presence that lets your story unfold naturally.
Because your love is one of a kind and it deserves to be remembered that way.

Co-founder of Obbiettivamente and a wedding photographer with a documentarian's soul, I bring quiet strength and intention to every frame.
My approach is guided by authenticity — capturing not just what’s seen, but what’s felt.
As a devoted husband and father, he knows the power of a fleeting moment. My photography reflects that same awareness: a subtle gesture, a shared glance, a tear barely held back.
Each image is grounded in truth, yet composed with artistry.
I don't seek to direct the day — I listen, observe, and move with calm precision. The result is a visual narrative that feels real, intimate, and timeless.
For me, wedding photography is not about perfection — it’s about presence.


My journey as a photographer has taken me to breathtaking landscapes, intimate celebrations, and heartwarming encounters, each leaving an indelible mark on my artistic vision. Through my work, I seek to evoke feelings, ignite curiosity, and celebrate the beauty of life in its purest form.

WEDDING ARRANGEMENT

A Wedding to Remember

In an age of instant everything, choosing film is an act of intention.
It's slow, imperfect, and sometimes unpredictable — and that’s exactly why I love it.
Shooting on film teaches patience. It forces you to trust your eye, your timing, and your intuition. Every frame counts. Every click matters. There's no infinite memory card — just a roll of 36 chances to get it right. Or to get it honest.
Film renders light differently. It breathes warmth into skin tones, softness into shadows, and poetry into imperfection. The grain isn’t noise — it’s texture. The tones aren’t edited — they’re born that way.
