I take an artistic and photojournalistic
approach to
memorializing your special day. I will
portray the
excitement of your wedding in an
unobtrusive,
perceptive and original style.
The emotion and details of your special day
will be
captured in a documentary style made
personal by your
choice of traditional or digital methods,
and color or
black and white photos. I deliver intriguing
compositions that are informative and highly
personal.
I have been photographing professionally for
over a
decade, and hold a Master of Fine Arts
degree in
photography from the School of Visual Art in
New York City. I also have extensive formal
training in
sculpture and art history.
I first developed a passion for photography
while an
art student in Florence, Italy, where I
studied the
Early Renaissance. I next spent a year
learning
traditional marble stone carving in
Pietrasanta,
Italy, then worked and studied in Hungary
and Romania, where I documented the lives of
rural farmers after the fall of dictator
Nicolae Ceausescu. For nearly two decades, I
have frequently returned to my childhood
home of Calabria, Italy to photograph an
ongoing chronicle of people’s lives in the
small villages
there, depicting how they both preserve and
slowly
adapt their cultural traditions as time
progresses.
In the States, while earning my master’s
degree, I
began to document a broad social spectrum of
women,
their homes, their possessions, and the
ordinary
things they do in those settings, using
photography
and video. Photographing weddings seemed to
me a
natural outgrowth of this work.
I reside in Westerly, Rhode Island, and
exhibit my
work in this country and abroad. I use 35mm
Nikon film
and digital cameras, and medium format film
cameras.
Prices start at $1800
