About me



Born in 1982, I’m an Italian freelance documentary photographer. I’m currently based in Turin, working on editorial and corporate assignments. In parallel, I carry on my personal research. My works often explore identity construction processes, collective imageries, and boundary territories. These evolving scenarios reflect my personal life path: prior to photography, in 2009 I graduated in Aerospace Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Turin. Between 2010 and 2014, I lived among Brussels, Turin, and Geneva, working mainly in academia. Back in Italy I completely devoted myself to photography. In 2015 I attended the Luz Academy school of photojournalism in Milan. Since 2019 I am contributor at Parallelozero agency. My pictures have been exhibited inside Photaumnales, Les Rencontres d’Arles festival, Gazebook Sicily Photobook Festival and Museum of Contemporary Art of Castello di Rivoli.

I work and collaborate among others with Parallelozero, Internazionale, Repubblica, Edoardo Garrone Foundation, Altre/storie (Chora Media), Slow Food, GAJA, Club Oenologique, ADAC Reisemagazin, Harper Collins, Domus, Intesa San Paolo, Harman Kardon, Miroglio.
