Jumping in the water

What would you say to a colleague asking you:
“Would you like me jumping in that pool of water?”
I mean, honestly, is there anyone around ready to say no to such question? If there is, I am not one of those! Instead, when I was asked the same question, yesterday at lunchtime, I just smiles, preparing [...]

Talking about Trust and Photography (and a king of the road)

One of the key things I have personally understood of photography is that you have to have a certain set of skills. This list is not unique, everything depends by what are your targets in the field. Do you want to be a photojournalist, or do you want to focus on the fashion field? Are [...]

The Photographer’s Eye

One of the most important characteristic for a photographer, in my opinion, is the capacity to see a photo before pressing the shutter, before even framing the scene. When I started going around London with my camera I felt frustrated, as I was not able to see interesting things and those I saw I was [...]

The colours of the streets

I admit that I love Black and White photos. They are incredibly expressive and, in particular when taking street photos, there is nothing better than black and white to document the streets as I see them. Even if I would love to say “My entire spectrum of street photographs is in black and white” I [...]

Street photography: a State of Mind

I have asked myself many times what is the meaning of being a Street Photographer and I have given myself different answers in different times. Answering has been a long process and not always I have been able to answer correctly to other people, but in the last weeks things have become clearer and clearer [...]

Cultivate your Dreams, or just be…

The Red Lady

Days are flying, faster than light, in front of my eyes. There are so many things I should do in such a sort time that I am sure I will not be able to finish everything I planned to before leaving for Italy in just few days. The Big Day is now just a week [...]

Guy with tattooed face and Beautiful chick

There are times when you know that if you want a photo, you need to approach your subject and ask their permissions. It is not because who they are, or better what they seem to be, but it is about what you feel as a photographer. Sunday I was walking up and down Regent Street [...]

Intellectualise My Blackness/Spawn

Are you really wondering why I decided to title this photo with a song by Skunk Anansie? Or are you wondering why Fabiana suggested the second title?
I would strongly suggest you to listen to the song I suggested while watching this photo, just for a while… not the faint hearthed though!!

Sweetest Thing

I have in my mind a song from U2 every time I look at this photo. Sweetest Thing. They were in Covent Garden in a sunny Saturday. The sun was warm and the day was lovely and they acted sweetly and so naturally that I waited a little bit looking for the real kiss, but [...]
