Who I am

Born and raised in Rome, Italy, I am a travel and editorial photographer based in Osaka. My work spans street, lifestyle, and documentary photography, shaped by a decade of exploring cultures and stories across the world. Since first arriving in Japan in 2015, I’ve drawn inspiration from its contrasts of tradition and modernity, capturing moments that invite people to see beyond the surface and connect more deeply with place and culture.

What I do at EYExplore

I lead a variety of workshops in Kyoto and Osaka in English, inviting people to see beyond the surface and explore with openness, to slow down, and to find meaning in the details.

Where I explore

I love exploring areas of Kyoto unspoiled by mass-tourism and discovering cool urban locations in Osaka. Also, I love hiking in the mountains of Wakayama.

Why I love photography

For me, photography is both exploration and connection: a way to tell stories that honor the cultures we encounter while inspiring new perspectives in those who view them.
