Statement
Photography for me represents the center of the world around which my whole existence revolves. I have always avoided a certain kind of "commercial" photography, always preferring documentary and reportage photography. Telling a story is the meaning of my life.
For me, photography is everything. I think it all started with cinema. Watching masterpieces from an early age, thanks to my father, definitely helped to shape in me a certain kind of aesthetic beauty towards images. I recently set up this website with the aim of expanding my audience and trying to tell life stories. I have only one goal: to photograph humanity.
