I am a professional photographer, focussing my work on environmental, geographic, travel, and social stories. I am an enthusiast of meeting people and spending time with them, and crossing lands and rivers, looking for where the landforms attract my attention the most. Or where there are pressing stories that need to be shown on pictures or videos.
I work in remote regions from Antarctica to the North Pole and the Svalbard Islands. But I was also in the of volcanoes in central Andes, in the Amazon and Madagascar, in Mongolia and Australia and up to the K2 base camp in the Karakoram.
Year 2025 I exhibited my pictures as science photographer and storyteller of the Coevolve research project on extreme life. The exhibit was on display from November 2025 to January 2026 at the Orto Botanico di Padova (Italy).
Year 2023 I was invited TEDx speaker in Bergamo. Here I shared my views on us, our landscape, and how we can build a sense of place in a changing environment, through observation and images. See a image here.
With my story Resilient Innovation, I am a proud selected photographer for the Earth Photo 2020, by the Royal Geographical Society of London.
My pictures on Community-Based management of natural resources from Mongolia, Madagascar and Bangladesh were exhibited at the Festival Ambiente Oggi e Domani (2021, some pics here and here), Festival Food and Science in Mantova (2019), Festival di Altroconsumo in Milan (2019), Venice Climate Lab (2018).
