The precious notebook
Animals have been part of my life, professional and otherwise, for over 30 years and photographing them has been an absolutely natural path. Only later did my love for travel lead me to discover my passion for documentary and reportage photos. Photographer to tell stories, for an aesthetic and emotional research; the constant search for light, color, the moment but above all the interaction with the people I meet gives me a great boost to sharing and understanding human nature and is an activity that is now indispensable for me.

entry description
In the corridor of the Wakhan (Afghanistan), even a notebook can be a precious object to keep: education here is not a foregone conclusion. And this green-eyed child seems to want to underline this by holding his (only?) Notebook before asking his father's permission to show it to us. Great lessons if you are willing to learnabout the photographer
Born in Turin in 1965, photographer from the age of 8, when I received my first camera as a gift (which I still own); since then I have never stopped looking at the world from behind a lens with ever-growing interest in travel and the environment.Animals have been part of my life, professional and otherwise, for over 30 years and photographing them has been an absolutely natural path.
