Former biologist and painter I am a passionate amateur photographer. Born in Italy, I now live in France. Everything I know about photography is self-educated. Internet research, inspiration from the works of other photographers and some kind advices from professional photographers helped me to progress. And, of course, a lot of work and patience trying things out. I have experimented photographing in all sorts of genres, from landscape to portraits and architecture. I am continuously trying to learn more about how to express myself through my work.
