What areas do you operate in ? |
Our work is mainly focused in the Marche and Abruzzi regions of Italy, although we do have requests from all over the country and also Europe, especially England, thanks to our being a member of the International Association of Photographers “SWPPSA & BPPA” as well as our knowledge of the English language.

How many and what types of Photographic services are available ? |
We try to offer a photographic service to suit each couple’s tastes and demands. We provide our customers with our professionalism, experience, style and photographic expertise which are capable of adapting to meet the needs of each individual couple. This is why, as well as the standard photographic service we also offer “classic, creative and reportage” photographic services.

What do you mean by “Reportage”
photographic service? |
The word reportage is very fashionable at the moment and is often used incorrectly. We use it to describe a photographic service where the couple are not asked to pose or attend a photographic session, but where the photographer skilfully and carefully without being noticed is capable of narrating the whole of the wedding in great detail and in a natural way, highlighting the true and spontaneous emotions of the day.
|
|
Do you offer a Video Service
|
Of course we do, we consider a filmed memory of the wedding extremely important. Our videos are carried out by professional video cameramen noted for their seriousness and discretion. The video completes our work, as it isn’t a photocopy of the photographic service, but it captures more the emotions of the celebration, or better still, tells the story of the highlights of the wedding, paying special attention to the ceremony and the festivities. As with the album, also with the video we ask the couple to choose from the various styles available.
|
|
What other kind of services do you offer the couple ? |
There are no limits, because we can satisfy any type of request. We provide the photographic services in CD/DVD, Family Book, Mini Book for parents, Bride and Groom Book, Pre-wedding photo trial, Bride’s make-up trial, Wedding gift list etc..
|
|
What do you think is the right price ? |
We believe that the right price is dictated by the market. The added value is determined by the photographer’s professionalism, his career, style, seriousness, reliability and, not to mention his ability in always rendering his photographic service up-to-date as well as “timeless”, and in passionately promoting the “memory culture”.
|
|
What do you mean by “memory culture” ? |
The times in which we live are characterized by a frenetic lifestyle, leaving us little time to assimilate an action or an event, as they are immediately followed by an other one ready to be experienced but not remembered. Our minds are full of things we have to do and remember, and even our hard discs and mobile phones rapidly run out of memory.
This is where the role of the photographer steps in at important ceremonies. He fixes a memory on to paper and in the sensitive way it has been carried out it will clearly transmit in time that special moment, in order to be able to freshly cherish the emotion and carefully preserve it.
|
|
How do you keep up to date ? |
We dedicate a lot of time to refresher courses, seminars and workshops, which we believe in so much that often we are called to hold them for our colleagues both in Italy as well as abroad. We also follow many “Fashion” events, we read the latest magazines, we love art cinema and attending exhibitions and shows that enrich our cultural background.
