Make it stand out

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

With a rich background in photographing food, wine, restaurants, and hotels, I offer specialized services that highlight the unique qualities of your establishment and create a lasting impression on your audience.

Capturing Culinary Artistry

Food photography is more than just taking pictures of dishes; it's about telling the story behind each creation. I work closely with chefs and restaurateurs to understand their vision and translate it into stunning visuals. My photography emphasizes the textures, colors, and presentation of your culinary masterpieces, making viewers crave a taste.

  • Fine Dining: Elegant and sophisticated images that reflect the high standards of gourmet cuisine.

  • Casual Eateries: Vibrant and inviting photos that showcase the comfort and appeal of your dishes.

  • Desserts and Beverages: Captivating shots that highlight the creativity and craftsmanship in your sweets and drinks.

Showcasing Wine Excellence

Wine photography requires a delicate touch to capture the depth and complexity of each bottle. My experience working with wine producers and at wine-tasting events allows me to bring out the character and heritage of your wines. Whether it's the intricate details of a wine label or the ambiance of a tasting room, I ensure that each image tells a story of tradition and quality.

  • Wine Bottles: Detailed and refined images that focus on branding and labeling.

  • Wine Tastings: Atmosphere-rich photos that capture the experience and enjoyment of wine sampling.

  • Vineyards: Beautiful landscapes that highlight the natural beauty and heritage of wine production.

I specialize in capturing the unique vibe and interior design of your establishment, making potential guests feel the ambiance through my photographs.

  • Guest Experience: Images that capture the joy and satisfaction of diners, highlighting exceptional service and ambiance.

Highlighting Hotel Hospitality

Hotel photography demands a keen eye for detail to illustrate the comfort, luxury, and uniqueness of your property. I work with hoteliers to produce images that attract travelers and convey the exceptional experience your hotel offers. My photos cover everything from grand lobbies and serene spas to inviting guest rooms and stunning architectural features.

  • Rooms and Suites: Inviting images that emphasize comfort and luxury.

  • Facilities and Amenities: Photos that showcase the range of services and experiences available to guests.

  • Events and Conferences: Professional shots that highlight your hotel’s capacity to host memorable events and meetings.

Culinary Journey in Bergamo's Città Alta

Recently, I had the pleasure of exploring the historic old city of Bergamo, known as "Città Alta." Among its stunning monuments and charming streets, I indulged in some exquisite traditional dishes: "Casoncelli alla Bergamasca" filled with meat and topped with a delightful sauce of pancetta, butter, and cheese, and "Foiade," a type of maltagliati with porcini mushrooms and cheese. The flavors were sublime, and my partner and I savored them alongside a refreshing glass of brut wine. We concluded our meal with a perfect espresso, rounding off an incredible culinary experience.

I captured this memorable meal through my lens, photographing the delicious dishes, a glass of the white wine, and a group photo of the three wonderful ladies who made our dining experience exceptional.

The restaurant, "Antica Osteria Del Vino Buono" in Bergamo, offered an inviting atmosphere, adorned like a traditional locanda with beautiful paintings and displayed wine bottles.

A heartfelt thank you to the team at “Antica Osteria Del Vino Buono” for their passion for food and their warm hospitality.
