Puglia

I was born in Naples in 1987, but I live in Puglia.
I am strongly linked to my land and to my origins, even though I feel I belong to the whole world.
I am precise, determined and solar.
At every wedding I got emotional.
I hide the tears behind the camera, the only place where I feel safe.
I abandoned after 9-year course of study and a specialization in Nutrition degree to live of photography.

I love weddings.
I love the emotions of the newlyweds, the unpredictability of people, I love tears, deep looks, intertwined hands, the warmth of families, strong hugs, children who run and get dirty, grandparents who fall asleep.
I try to tell every story in a simple, natural and elegant way, as I feel it and live it.
I simply let myself be carried away by emotions and by the day, without directing it or modifying the natural course of events.
I like to think that my story will be a memory forever in someone's life.
I love this job because, in reality, for me it's not a job and, as someone says: "love your job and you'll never work a day of your life".

I did not choose to be a photographer, I chose to photograph. I chose to do it, when I realized I could tell someone else photographing, photographing their love mixed to my soul and having the power to freeze a memory, leaving lives forever the emotions of that moment.

I'm a pure wedding photojournalist based in the south of Italy. I believe the integrity of the image is paramount. Follow all of your emotions!

Hi, my name is Marco, live and breathe photography every minute of my days. I was born in Cosenza in 1984. I define myself as a dreamer, I like to look, I'm curious and I try for simplicity. I was very young when I started to be interested in photography, but it was the experience of scouting that stimulated me and led me to cultivate this passion. Photography has always been intrigued and excited, not only because of its strong ability to transmit emotions, but above all because of its great power to tell stories.

I am a photographer of weddings, of stories, of people and details. I love spontaneity and the uniqueness of unrepeatable moments. I believe that photography is a vocation, an instinct and a natural talent that occasionally someone is lucky enough to recognise in themselves. I let myself be contaminated by colours and geometries, I am a lover of architecture and perspective, and I have always been attracted to minimalism. I live in Apulia but was born in Croatia, two different cultures that have greatly influenced my way of seeing things.

Hi, I'm Graziano I love to travel and discover new places, I love my little family made up of my wife, our dog Azumi and a wonderful new born, Leonardo. These are the driving forces that fuel day by day my desire to make the most beautiful memories unforgettable, to fix those details that often go unnoticed... those nuances that make enchanted simple everyday gestures. I have been photographing for as long as I can remember, as a child with the classic disposable Kodak, the most disparate subjects. After my academic studies, the specialist degree in scenography and a short interlude in the Navy, I decided to deepen my studies on the culture of the image in photography, exploring all its narrative potential through professional courses and workshops, which I still do not miss the opportunity to follow with great interest.

Sono attratta dalla bellezza, dal colore, dalla passione... ed è questo che ricerco e ritraggo nelle mie fotografie. Sono una fotografa matrimonialista creativa, sempre alla ricerca di quel qualcosa in più, che renda la foto personale ed esclusiva, in equilibrio tra spontaneità, eleganza e ricercatezza.

Rino Cordella was born in Brussels, the European city where he could breathe as a child, some of the most important artistic movements that allowed him to open his own window on the world of art.

Then, with time and artistic maturity, he chose the magic and the energy of Salento to create his newest studio in Copertino (Lecce). And it's here that, through his shots, he shows and expresses the emotions of the photographer capturing unique moments with the sensibility of a storyteller, who is discreetly there to catch a smile, a look or a thought. For Rino photographing is always as telling a new story, a different challenge between passion and technique, a world to be represented with subtle sophistication... but above all it's a magic moment to be returned to those who, for one day, have entrusted themselves to the eye of his special camera.

He received numerous awards from various national and international associations such as the WPJA (Wedding Photojournalist Association) - AGWPJA (Artistic Guild of the WPJA) - ANFM (National Association of Wedding Photographers) - Fearless Photographers.

In 2010 he came in at 12th place in the AGWPJA final standings. In 2012 receives the QIP and the QEP qualifications in the Marriage category, two highly coveted certifications in Italy as well as in Europe.

Finally in 2013, his pictures are rewarded with one silver and three bronze awards during the FIOF Nikon awards contest that allowed him to qualify on the first position in the wedding category.

I'm the one behind the camera. I love photographing people and I love telling stories, and I've found the perfect balance of both in my work. Today my mission is to keep alive people's memory through small collections of authentic moments.

For over thirty years, our photographic studio has eternalized love stories. From Apulia to beautiful Rome, from Milan to Sicily, we have captured the real atmosphere of each love story. I think that every image should be able to revive the same enchantment of that unique day. That's why the photographer must be able to immerse himself in your dream without distracting you from the warmth of friends, a lovely embrace with family, or an emotional tear.

My wish is to leave a mark by making a collection of natural and spontaneous images. For me, being there provides immense gratification because you have trusted me with your memories, and this reminds me that my job is "the best job in the world."
