Even though I am a Wireless specialist in the telecommunication industry,  I am originally an environmental Scientist and my love for nature and pristine landscapes is reflected in most of my pictures; Photography is for me more than just a hobby, it’s a passion where I try to convey the emotions I feel when  light, shapes and colours all together work in magical moment.

I started into photography about 6 years ago, while I was living in Switzerland, with a cheap Canon 35 mm SLR and shooting slides (Velvia). The main subject of my pictures at the beginning were the beautiful landscapes that were surrounding me, but with time light has become increasingly important and I like to think that now it’s the primary subject of  my compositions.

Most of my pictures are still Velvia slides, scanned with a Nikon Coolscanner V and without any sort of digital post processing (just the basic adjustments needed to bring back in the digital picture what has been lost during the scanning process).

One year ago I started also with digital photography and, even though I find it very practical for nature photography, I still prefer the look of film especially when it’s about landscapes.

What else needs to be said? I am Italian, but I now live in Texas with my husband Andrea who patiently supports my passion, and this new land is influencing my photography as well, with its big flat surfaces, gorgeous skies, and the abundance of nature available at short distance.
