About
I was born in 1988 in Loreto, a few kilometres from the Adriatic. I photograph the coast because it says things I find hard to say any other way.
It began as a private thing and stayed that way for a long time: long exposures on the sea, starts before dawn, and coming home with nothing more often than not. That part has not changed, and I would not want it to.
Along the way I have been lucky enough to work with magazines and with companies. One frame was Highly Honored at the Nature’s Best Photography Awards and was exhibited at the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washington, which is not the sort of thing you plan for. I am a NiSi ambassador. It is work I am glad to have — but it is not the part I would keep, if I had to choose.

What I would keep are the workshops and the photographic trips. I have been writing about photography and running courses and trips since 2010, and it is still the part of the work I would defend first. A small group, a week, a forecast that changes every afternoon, and a sea that does as it pleases.
That is where I am most myself: standing in the cold with people who care about the same things, waiting for the same ten minutes of light.
Where the new work goes
New frames usually turn up on Instagram before they turn up here, along with the odd look behind a workshop. Below is a selection from the galleries; the account itself is one click away.
Come and shoot
If that sounds like your kind of week, the workshops are here. Otherwise write to me: I answer.
