La Dolce Vita Event

On behalf of the London-based independent magazine L'italoeuropeo  I shot these photos of the 'La Dolce Vita' event a couple of weeks ago. The show took place over three days at the Business Design Centre in Islington and was a huge success.
Enjoy!

Hope's Birthday



I had a great time last week taking photos of Hope and her friends at her Birthday party. They chose to do the photo shooting at Hope's home rather than at my studio, so I brought my portable backgrounds and lighting and we had a wonderful time. Even mum Sue and Dad Jonathan had a lot of fun, and I got a happy email from them to say they are over the moon with the photos!
It always feel good to have happy clients :)

Roxy and Guy 's Pre Wedding at Emirates Stadium

I first met Roxane and Guy last year when they were looking for a photographer for their wedding day. Within minutes of meeting I was struck by what a fantastically unique couple they are!
Roxy and Guy are both die-hard supporters of Arsenal, and are so enamored with their club that they actually live in the old stadium (it was converted into homes when the team moved to the new Emirates Stadium). But it doesn't stop there ... their wedding reception is going to be in the new Emirates stadium .... wow wow wow! So obviously their pre-wedding photo session just had to be near the stadium too! What a fun day we had, even if the weather wasn't exactly on our side.
Oh, and did I say how Guy popped the question? You would never guess ... If you happen to be walking  near the stadium one day, have a look and you might just see a plaque in the pavement just in front of the entrance which simply says: "Darling Roxane, will you marry me".
WHAT A COUPLE!  Can't wait to see their Wedding ;)

Marco Travaglio and Antonio Padellaro at the London School of Economics

I shot the photos of this post last Friday at the London School of Economics.
The talk "Cosa abbiamo imparato in questi 150 anni" was given by Marco Travaglio (author and journalist) and Antonio Padellaro (Director of newspaper `Il Fatto Quotidiano') and it was organized by the
LSE Students' Union Italian Society as part of their `Italian week'.

Wedding Anniversary: 60 years together!!

Just a quick post about this lovely Wedding Anniversary.
I was in Italy over Xmas, working a lot, but enjoying the 20 degrees of sunshine too (!). I was really happy to do a session with a lovely couple celebrating their 60 years of marriage on the 26th of December.
That's matrimonial dedication for you! (I'm loving the vintage effect on the group photo ...)
