Believe me or not I am quite lost for words lately.
The Street Portrait Project is in place and we are having the first meeting with few people who are interested in being photographed. Fabiana and I want to have a chat with each and everyone of them before the photo session, just to understand [...]
I had never shot at night. When the sky goes dark, every single light is paramount. This child was playing in the fountain on the South Bank and she, with some friends and under the supervision of her mother, was having a lot of fun.
It has been challenging to shoot with so few lights but [...]
It is true: shooting during Festivals is easy. But it is also true that there are people that do not expect to be shot, even during a festival. Maybe they were just passing by, after their daily run, and they just saw all those people. No matter what I loved the different attitude and expression [...]
I have always loved the color red. Apart from my Black and White addiction in photos, it has ever been my favorite color. I have always been a sunset person, never a dawn one. I never want to go to sleep and I would never wake up. I am a coffee person, strong minded, stubborn [...]

Fabiana was highly undecided on the lens to use, so she swapped some [...]
Lately I am shooting children more than usual, even if I limit myself to public Festivals and similar events. I am not always at ease taking photos of them, but there are moments that are worth it. This was one of them.
We were walking on the bridge in front of Embankment when we saw this [...]
The fountain on the Jubilee Gardens, outside the South Bank Center, is a great place for photos, especially during warm and sunny days. Children, in particular, seems to live one of the happiest moment of their lives when they run in and out of the the fountain, with the water turned off or not.
The other [...]
He was walking with some friends under a shadowy bridge. The first shot I took of him and his friends was not spectacular but it gives me the possibility to see his spectacular eyes. So I zoomed in to get them and I waited him to get under the light. He saw me, and to [...]
