Born in Brescia, Italy, after law school I moved abroad, working in the hospitality industry.
Mediterranean Sea, Indian Ocean and West Indies, mostly Islands.
I’m attracted by them, I’m curious to investigate their enclosed space, the isolation from the mainland and the relationships among islanders.
I love documenting it and on the other side I realize shooting for Hotels, Chefs, magazines, tourism promotion and small realities in harmony with nature..

Ne sono attratto, mi incuriosisce il legame tra i suoi abitanti, lo spazio circoscritto e il distacco dalla terra ferma.
