Photography and photographers...

If you have already spent some of your time on this blog you will probably know who I am.
When I say "Who I am" I mean who I really am, because I'm not only a dreadhead with a blog.


                               
                                     This is me⤴

Photography is not only a passion,
It represents my father as a photographer and as such an important person in my life.
It represents my granparents who always believed in me and gave me my first camera as a gift.
It represents my perseversance and all my sacrifices.
It represents every day I spent busking to have the money to travel.

It represents

The places I saw

The adventures I lived.

I'm thankful for all the sunsets

For all the people I met







                    And for who I haven't met yet.

Some of the photos I collected during the past two years⤴

If you liked them (I hope you did) you need to check them out on Facebook or Instagram

I'm sorry for "spamming" part, I prefer the creative part too.
I found and lost myself in the photos I make, this is so beautiful. I've never felt like this before.
Do you know that feeling when you live "here and now", you are the moment, you are everything and everything is you, don't you?
Well, if you don't, stop whatever you are doing and begin to live your life as you want it to be.
Don't let anyone tell you that You can't do it. 
Forget about career, money, people's opinion, and ask to yourself "How do I feel?"... and remember that if there is someone who can change your reality, that person is YOU.
Let's live in freedom and peace, let's make friends and contemplate the sunset, let's live every moment.

When life is not as you expected

Dear You,

Lovely you, who woke up this morning with the question "What am I doing here? Am I happy?".
You're building your existence, this keeps your eyes open on the world around you, this makes you stronger everyday more.
If you're not happy with the aswer to these questions you need to know that's okay.
That's fine if you are eighteen, thirty or even sixty. You're living life caring about your happiness and this is something to be proud of.
You woke up this morning, looked in the mirror and put a smile on your face, well, how true was that smile? Did you let the day fly away or you lived it?
How many days are going to fly away before you will pick up life in your hands? This is your own life, it doesn't belong to anyone else. Who will change it if you don't do it by yourself?
Go outside, take a breath and see what's around you. Do you like it? Do you feel this belongs to you? If that's not, run, run away until you run out of breath.
Build a life which can represent you, build a life where the reason to wake up in the morning is to live.
I know it's scary to change, you leave something familiare to look for something you probably don't know what it is.
If anyone will support you, well, I will, but you HAVE to support yourself first.
Believe in yourself, as a human you are incredible, you can go wherever your heart brings you, just follow it.
Take care of yourself, phisically and mentally, because if you won't do it who will do it for you?
I woke this morning asking myself "Where am I going?" and do you know what's the answer? I have no idea, so I started laughing, I almost cried.
It's okay to not have an clear idea of what you're doing or where you're going, that's life, but it must not stop you.
You're strong, I know you're strong.
I'm so proud of you.
We will go over this and what we will find will be magnificent.

Believe in yourself,
because I do.
See you soon.
Bye.

A new adventure!

A week ago I had the chance to participate in a photography project organized by Let me italian you (Let me italian you - facebook page), a cultural association specialized in creating projects in Italy and abroad.

I spent 5 days in Barcelona with my imagination and my camera.
This experience has changed my attitude with people and with photography, so now I can say it has been important for me as a person and as a photographer.
I made new friends, talented people who live their lives in happiness and creativity, because having a passion in common can create connections between people.

I learned how to shoot in a studio and I took my first shots...

 thanks to incredible photographers who showed and shared their passion with us, they made me realize photography is not all about the camera, but it's about people, feelings and the strength of seeing the world as a combination of wonderful details.
I spent everyday doing what I love and what makes me happy, so people were smiling at me and I was smiling at them.
If you will be reading this and you were with me during these days I want to say thank you from the depth of my heart for being such an inspiration for me and keep going because you're doing amazing things. You made my experience worthy to be done!
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about check the links above to see the brilliant shots which will be posted soon on facebook and remember to stay focused on your passions and on what you love because you will feel happy with yourself and with your life.
It's not about staying positive, it's about BEING positive and you will live as you want to live, you will live a life that represents you!

Warm sweet home

I wanted to upload something cute before going to Barcelona for the second time.
(I'm super happy to have the chance to take part in a amazing project and photoshoot in Barcelona again!)

Eventhough it is only the 9th October I'm freezing in this autumn day and I decided to express this feeling with a cozy and warm video.
Hope you like it!

The past made me stronger

The past made me stronger  is the first video of (I hope) many others!
I spoke about something really important and difficult for me, I felt uncomfortable for a long time, but I finally had the courage to talk about it.
I'm so excited to share with you my journey and transition from the who I was to the fit and healthy person I want to be.
I hope it will help me to stay focused on what I want to achieve and to help and inspire others to never give up on their dreams and stay positive in every situation.
I know it is hard, it may will take a long time to happen, but I promise we will make it together!

So watch the video, leave a comment below and make sure to subscribe!
