Latest Reading: Ernest Hemingway’s “The old mand and the sea”

17 April 2020

A portrait of Ernest Hemingway

During these long days of isolation due to the corona virus, I am investing most of time on reading. One of the latest book I have read was “The old man and the sea” from Ernest Hemingway. This novel is a milestone of contemporary literature and it was on my “to-read” list since I was a young student. I think that every book read is a great improvement for a photographer: lots of my colleagues invest time on tutorial and how-to’s but I think that there is more photography in novels like these than in one hundred photography lessons.


“Now is no time to think of what you do not have. Think of what you can do with what there is.”

Santiago, “The old man and the sea”

GABRIELE

Scripting electric storylines in Milan's designer-scene Gabriele's stylistic approach culls from fashion-campaigns & photojournalism.
His wedding images tap on the modern side of Love meld with
Italianate sapor.

As a fashion portraitist I've treaded between reality and fantasy, identity and inclusivity, time, space, culture and (be)longing. These all influenced how I photograph real people, urging me to create images that offer -in their simplicity- a connective tissue and counterpoint to my subjects. I tell stories of how chance encounters between strangers come to form families, and capture how their shared space, experiences, values and time bring about the little magic the future needs. It's all very Italian, and so universal at the same time.
