A Cinematic Journey in Love and Elegance
With a canvas that spans the realms of fashion, painting, and illustration, my journey in the world of storytelling led me to a profound appreciation for the moving image, particularly in the realm of documentary cinema. It was in the delicate tapestry of wedding films that I discovered the perfect intersection of my artistic pursuits. Each frame becomes an eloquent brushstroke, merging a refined sense of style with a love for intricate details, a melody of emotions, and an unwavering commitment to authentically capturing the essence of a couple’s celebration.
My cinematic style is an authentic narrative imbued with a touch of dreamlike elegance. It transcends the ordinary, focusing on the minutiae of emotions, the enchantment of music, and the symphony of sounds that accompany the celebration of love. I believe in the power of the little things and details, as they weave together to tell a story that is uniquely yours.
Settled in the heart of Florence, a city that resonates with the timeless elegance I seek to capture, I bring a wealth of experiences from living in places such as London, Paris, Bali, Mallorca, and Milan.
As a storyteller who loves to travel, I am more than willing to join you on your wedding destination, transforming your love story into a cinematic masterpiece that reflects the depth of your connection.
