FAQ

can’t wait to meet you and help tell your unique story!

Below you will find answers to the most common questions I am often asked. It’s my pleasure to be as clear as possible in every aspect, it’s my intention to offer you a pleasant and relaxing but at the same time unconventional experience. I believe in deep bonds between people and I know very well that a wedding is more than just a ceremony. It’s your day and we will face every moment of tension, happiness, tears, joy and love together.

1.

HOW WOULD YOU DIFINE YOUR STYLE?

Mine is a intimate, genuine, emotional style, I like to be in the shadows. What sets me apart is the attention to detail, composition and light. The strength of my images lies in simplicity, I don’t look for forced poses, I just give directions, I don’t like to interfere with the day, I prefer to find out what will happen…

2.

DO YOU WORK ONLY IN TURIN OR ARE YOU AVAILABLE FOR TRAVEL?

I live in Orbassano, in the province of Turin, but I will be happy to reach you wherever you are… Travel expenses are always included for Turin and province, but in case you move to other areas or regions I will ask you for a contribution for travel expenses and possible accommodation for me and my collaborator.

DO YOU HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS?

We will agree everything in detail before the wedding,
I will certainly need to know addresses, travel, timetables, any attractions or performances organised by your guests. Normally I ask for a table to be set up for me and my assistant, where we can put down our equipment, recharge our batteries and, from time to time, refresh ourselves.

How do you make your couples look like models? Will I look like a model in my photos?

Most of my couples are not models, but with my expert photography roadmap that curates the desired aesthetic of your photos (much like planning for a magazine photoshoot!), authentic connection with couples, and guidance throughout the entirety of the wedding process, they can easily relax and be themselves in front of the camera. You bring your intimacy, vulnerability, and genuine self, and i’ll deliver on exactly what you need to achieve this look in your wedding photos.

7.

WE WILL RECEIVE EVERY SINGLE SHOT?

Although it is more laborious and complicated, I prefer to select and evaluate the images one by one, to deliver only the best shots. Often the environmental and lighting conditions require a few extra shots to make sure I get the best possible quality. What I will deliver to you will be author’s shots, the result of months of work and careful selection.

8.

WHAT IS THE DELIVERY TIME?

Approximately 30 days after the wedding you will have the complete gallery from which to choose the images that move you most. Once I receive your choice, it will take me about 60 days to package the finished product.

As for printing, there are technical processing and packaging times. As this is professional printing, from the time the design is sent, technical preparation time will be needed for delivery. 

Don’t worry, this whole operation will take no more than six months.
