01 / ARMANI / ENTIRELY SHOT ON FILM

REAL FILM.
Fashion instinct.

This entire Armani series was photographed on film. Light, silhouettes and the atmosphere of the set, captured on analogue cameras. The grain and film borders belong to the photographs — not an effect added afterwards.

Not a filter. Actual film.

Some frames
are worth waiting for.

I still shoot on 35mm and on a Rolleiflex. Twelve frames on a roll of 6×6 make you look a little longer before you press the shutter. I’m especially drawn to black and white: light, shape, expression. No distractions.

Film photography is available on request. We choose the format and number of rolls together; it is quoted separately.

A WEDDING, ON FILM.Every frame, intentional.

From getting ready to the vows and the celebration. A selection from the original film scans, in colour and black & white.

MILLE / LIVE

You can almost
hear this frame.

The stage, the crowd, the moment everything lets go. This is the other side of my work in music: not directing the action, but being there for it.

Press play.
Feel the difference.

I work on music videos in Italy and films for couples across borders. Rhythm, sound, colour and the unexpected: a different way of keeping a story alive. Choose a film below.

03 / Weddings · Houston & destinations

The photographs.
And everything that moves.

The look before the ceremony. The voices in the speeches. Your friends on the dance floor. For 15 years I’ve photographed and filmed weddings around the world, bringing fashion experience to portraits and a documentary instinct to everything in between.

The Houston Season Collection. Photo + Video. One artist.
One hybrid shooter. Here’s what that means.

One person.
Photo + video.

You work with me from the first call to the wedding day. I switch between dedicated photo and video cameras as the day unfolds. A cinema camera and dedicated audio support the video coverage while I photograph. Speeches are included; a full ceremony recording is an optional deliverable to agree before booking.

It’s a way of working I’ve used for years, at weddings, events and on commissioned projects. A lean setup, a shared visual style, and a timeline we plan together.

Can one person cover everything?

Not two places at once. Getting ready can usually be covered sequentially, with travel and setup inside the booked hours. Photo and video choices are coordinated, not two independent full-time operators. If your plans need simultaneous coverage, I can quote an additional operator.

All current prices, coverage options and extras are on the Houston wedding page. The full ceremony is recorded on the C70 within planned coverage; editing and delivery of the full ceremony are a separately agreed add-on.

From first hello to final delivery

A clear plan.
Room to be yourselves.

Good images start before I pick up a camera. We get to know each other, decide what matters and make space for the moments nobody can plan.

  1. 01

    Let’s meet

    A first call before any contract. Tell me about the two of you, the day or the project you have in mind.

  2. 02

    Make it yours

    A clear proposal, then a planning call: locations, timing, photographs, video and any extra support.

  3. 03

    Live it. Relive it.

    I guide when it helps and step back when life takes over. Your edited photographs and video arrive on the delivery schedule agreed in your proposal.

Before you ask.

Photography only, video only, or both?

All three. Choose photography or video for a dedicated service, or the Hybrid collection for coordinated photo and video coverage by me. I quote larger teams separately.

Do you travel beyond Houston?

Yes, across the US and for destination weddings. Houston-area travel is included in the Hybrid collection; travel fees and accommodation elsewhere are agreed in advance. I usually spend summer in Italy, also working on fashion campaigns.

Can we meet in front of the camera before the wedding?

When timing allows, I like to plan an engagement session so we get comfortable together. Its scope and availability are agreed before booking; it is not automatically included. Those moments can also become part of your film.

What if we are not used to being photographed?

You do not need to perform. I offer simple direction for portraits, then follow the gestures and connections that are already there. Editorial does not have to mean staged.

04 / Federico, behind the camera

An Italian eye.
A personal approach.

I like images with character. And people who feel like themselves in them.

Milan taught me to notice the details: the cut of the light, the shape of a silhouette, when a frame needs less. Weddings taught me something equally useful—when to put the plan aside and follow what’s actually happening.

I work between Houston and Italy, across fashion, music videos and weddings. I’ll bring a point of view, but I won’t ask you to become someone else for the camera.

FEDERICO / ON SET
FEDERICO + AISHA / Life & work

A shared life.
Two points of view.

Aisha, the photographer behind Ama by Aisha, is my wife. We’ve worked together since we met, sharing wedding stories, travels and a love of making images.
