Mondo Creolo
b>gallery, Roma
New faces move through our cities — indefinable, fascinating, undeniable. A portrait series about identity in motion, and a world that has already changed whether we noticed or not.

Work
Images that earn their place.
A selection across three decades of corporate, editorial, and experimental work.
Every dot is someone who looked twice.
The question was never about the tool.

The Collateral Eye
Galleria Romana, Roma
Fourteen images born from a sideways impulse. Not the subject you were sent to photograph — the one that appeared just outside the frame of professional obligation. Fragments with a single thing in common: each one began as a distraction that turned out to be the truth.

Between Photography and Synthography: A 3D Spatial Exhibition
Virtual
A space that exists only as light. Photography and generative AI meet in a virtual exhibition environment — images that began in a camera and continued in an algorithm.

Atelier
I teach what experience taught me.
Nine sessions. One obsession: light on a human face. We work with available light, studio setups, and everything in between. You'll learn to read a face before you frame it — the tension in the jaw, the angle that changes everything. Film or digital, Rome or your location. The goal isn't technique. It's the portrait you couldn't make before.
Form, light, and the courage to look. The same rigour as the portrait course, applied to the full human figure. We study the masters, work with professional models, and build a visual vocabulary for rendering the body with honesty. Post-production focuses on skin, tone, and guiding the viewer's eye. Nine sessions, maximum 12 students. Closed enrolment.
Generative AI as a creative instrument, not a shortcut. You'll build visual systems that keep your authorial voice at scale — from prompt architecture to post-production pipelines. For photographers and creatives who want to command the tool, not just collect its output. The machine changed. The eye didn't.
One teacher. One student. No fixed syllabus. We start from your work, find what's missing, and build from there. Portrait, reportage, post-production, visual identity — whatever you need, at whatever level you're at. Sessions in Rome or remote. The pace is yours. The standard is mine.

Practice
How I work.
01
Photography
Analog roots, digital precision. Medium format and full frame. Available light when possible, controlled light when necessary. No shortcuts, no filters that apologize for the image.
02
Videography
Cinematic storytelling for brands and spaces. From concept to final edit. Work that moves the way a good photograph holds still.
03
Syntography
Not a replacement for the camera — an extension of the eye. Concept development, visual research, content at scale for clients who need both quality and volume.
04
Visual Consulting
Strategy before execution. I work with brands, agencies, and creative directors to define visual identity, content systems, and production workflows. The image starts long before the shoot.
05
AI as a System
Not prompts — processes. I help companies integrate generative AI into their visual production pipeline: from briefing to output, at scale, with consistency.
06
Lessons & Workshops
Individual and group training on photography, video, and AI visual tools. For professionals who want to expand their practice, and for brands who want their teams to think visually.
Process
From brief to image.
01
Listen
Before any camera, any prompt, any light setup — I listen. What is this image supposed to do? What feeling should it leave? What does the client need that they haven't said yet?
02
See
I look at the space, the subject, the light. I form an image before I take one. This is the part that took thirty years to learn.
03
Make
Photography, video, or generative — the tool follows the vision, not the other way around. Execution is fast because the thinking was slow.
04
Deliver
Final files, licensed and ready. No ambiguity on usage rights, formats, or deadlines. Working with professionals means behaving like one.
About
A bad image costs more than a good photographer.
You learn to see before you press. That part never changes.

I've been working with light since before it was pixels. Analog taught me patience — the discipline of a single frame, chosen before pressing the shutter. Digital gave me speed without sacrificing intention. Generative AI gave me a new language, one I was already fluent in.
Three technological revolutions. The same eye throughout.
Today I work at the intersection of all three — for clients who understand that quality isn't a style, it's a standard. Luxury hospitality, fashion, corporate portraiture, architecture. Projects where the image carries responsibility: to the brand, to the space, to the person in front of the lens.
I choose projects where the image carries real responsibility. Quality isn't a style — it's a standard.
I started with film. Not as a choice — it was the only option. Medium format, available light, one roll per session. You learned to see before pressing, because pressing cost something.
Forty years later that discipline is still the only thing I trust.
The transition to digital did not change my eye. It changed my patience budget — and not always for the better. Speed is a trap. The camera that never runs out of film is also the camera that never forces you to decide. I kept the analog logic and borrowed the digital speed only when it served the image.
When generative AI appeared I recognized it immediately — not as a threat, not as a shortcut, but as a new darkroom. The same negotiation between intention and accident. The same question: is this what I meant to make? I have been working with it seriously since 2021, building visual systems for clients who need quality at scale without losing authorial control.
I am based in Rome. I work across Europe and internationally. My clients are luxury hospitality groups, fashion brands, architectural studios, and companies that understand that a bad image costs more than a good photographer.
I do not take every project. I take the ones where the image carries real responsibility — to the brand, to the space, to the person in front of the lens. The tools changed three times. The standard, never.

Print still means something.
A page that holds still, a cover that commits, an editorial sequence with a beginning and an end. A record of the work as it appeared in the world — in magazines, books, and publications that chose to give it space.

Every project starts with a conversation.
I work with clients who value precision, consistency, and a long-term relationship with their visual identity. If that describes your project, I'd like to hear about it.
