Proposal in Venice on a traditional Venetian gondola
Alina & Nathan, from USA at their engagement travel in Italy
As soon as I started working as a surprise wedding proposal photographer I knew it was always going to be a challenge. Although it's not always 100% surprise, as the fiancee already expects that during that trip, at some point the proposal will happen, I always need to treat the situation as being a surprise.
When Nathan hired me to photograph his proposal he told me he would like it to be in a gondola in Venice. He and Alina are North Americans. I am always curious how the guy manages to hide the little box with the engagement ring during the trip. I had already photographed requests in the gondola, but always together with the couple, which makes the surprise even more difficult. This time we agreed that I would follow the route from outside and photograph along the canals and bridges of Venice. It was a different and very rewarding experience, as I was able to offer different photos than usual.
Pre Wedding of Manoela and Gabriel, from Brazil
Soon it will be Manoela and Gabriel's wedding day, a young couple from Brazil living in Italy. This week we had the opportunity to record this beautiful pre-wedding session in Venice.
Venice for fun!
It's no secret that Venice has carried a magical atmosphere for centuries. The scenic is part of Venetian culture, with Carnival, the masks and the most famous Film Festival in Italy.
It was in this fun atmosphere that I met Sherry. She came from Phoenix, USA, where she lives, to get to know Italy and wanted to record this moment with a photo shoot in Venice.
She was travelling alone. It is always an honor to collaborate with someone to portray their image in a city far from their home country.
It rained a little that day, but we did a beautiful and fun photo shoot.
Yesterday the New York-Venice route was resumed with Delta Airlines. We hope it will be the return of those dear American travellers.
Pregnancy Session at Lake Como
When I lived in brazil, I used to photograph many pregnancy shootings. Here in Italy the requests for pregnancy photos are slowly appearing and this gives a balance in the work with tourists and weddings. It's so nice to talk to people with these plans to grow the family, value this time together for portraits that will mark such an important moment in their lives.
Spending this time with Ana Carla's family was special, because it was a family of Brazilians, and we could remember and share memories and stories about Brazil.
They chose the city of Como with its splendid lake for this lovely pregnancy shooting.
How about to photograph at 7am?
Engagement session in Florence, Tuscany at 7am
Today I came here just to remember a very nice couple that I photographed in Florence. I've met so many travellers from Asia who come to spend their holidays in Italy and ask for a photo shooting. And with the pandemic and travel restrictions I end up missing so much these dear ones who shared great experiences with me.
When Roberta spoke to me she asked that we do the photos early in the morning to avoid the large number of tourists near the Duomo di Firenze. I love shooting at this time of the day because the light is fantastic. If one day you have the opportunity, wherever you are, don't miss it!
And if you come to Italy, I will be happy to photograph at 7am in Florence, Rome, Venice or any other destination you choose.

Solo Portraits - besides the selfies
When I started photographing people travelling in Italy I immediately imagined couples on their honeymoon. And when I was looking for inspiration on Instagram profiles and travel blogs about the cities I would work in, most of the photos were actually of couples.
But as requests for photo shoots came in, so did families, small and large groups and yes, people travelling alone!
At first it seemed a bit strange, but soon I got used to the idea and looked for more inspiration on how to photograph people alone.
I can say that the most interesting travel stories that clients have shared with me have been exactly in this type of session.
Emma was one of those nice clients who chose Florence to illustrate her solo trip through Italy.
Summer photo shooting in Florence
We can do good photos even on the summer
Sometimes the intense heat doesn't let us think very well. It was a hot summer day in Florence and I needed to drive a couple of Americans for a photo shoot with good views of the city.
Doing this in the early afternoon carrying a backpack with about 6kg of equipment made things a bit more complicated.
But one of the coolest things when you work with photos of couples in love and in a city that is all about love, art and history, is that once you start making beautiful photos in such iconic places you get a good dose of encouragement to keep going no matter what the weather conditions are.
And as soon as I introduced myself to the couple and we started the photo shooting in Florence everything flowed very naturally and in the end they really liked the result: being driven by a local photographer with explaining a bit of the main points of the Renaissance city along the way and having your passionate record in this scenario is something that customers value a lot.
