Boring bibliographic note

I was born in Ancona in 1982.
My family, already fond of photography, soon put a camera in my hand.
They told me: "You can photograph anything, but not the sun." And what did I do?
I photographed the sun! But it wasn't my first photo, just the second.
I keep shooting without much enthusiasm or skill, then I give up for a while.
I pick up the camera again with a Nikon Bridge, Coolpix model, precursor of today's digital cameras. I enjoy and take photos of everything, especially my friends, but I still let my gut guide me. I leave again for a season.
In 2012, I finally made the decision and enrolled in my first photography course, with Andrea Bellezza. I master into reportage photography with Maurizio Toni, street photography with Stefano Corso and finally I participate in the photographic language course with Lujdmilla Sotchi that opens my eyes. I begin to configure my personal style that I continue to build to this day.
In 2013 I won a national contest and turned the prize into the Canon 5D Mark III with I work with today.
In the same year I start working with the fashion photographer Alessandro Cattabrini in his studio, learning a lot.
Then I move to Venice and starting the collaboration with Grazia De Lucca brought me to the top.
Now I live and work in Barcelona, ​​the city I have always dreamed of, but I like to travel, for work or just for pleasure.
After the pandemic, and a significant drop in work, I redirected my interest towards therapeutic photography, discovering that photos can improve our well-being and our psychophysical state.
