Can you tell us a little about you?
Hi everyone, I’m Fabio and I’m an amateur italian photographer based in Turin, Italy.
How and when did you get into photography?
My passion of photography was born 15 years ago when my dad, passionate about photography, convinced me to start photographing. Before then I was taking my pictures with a small compact camera during the holidays.

Many photographs and photographers inspire and fascinate me, i read many books about photography and visited photography exhibits. Today Internet and social networks are another sources with which is possible confront, share and study new good ideas.

yes, usually before photographing i study a mood and the outfit ideal for the model, many times during my sessions i try to make a shot with what the moment offers.
