I am Nick, nice to talk to you. Please enter without knocking.
I was born in Città di Castello, at the centre of Italy, in 1986. I am a passionate photographer with love for each kind of art, especially for music: I am a singer, a pianist and a sound designer.
I began to shoot when I was a child, using my mother's analogic Practika camera with a 50 mm f/1.8 lens. At ten years old, I recieved my first own camera with zoom lens. I still have, on my bedroom wall, the oldest picture I took: a cloudy warm twilight of my land. Growing up, I bought a bridge zoom camera with Leica lens and I started to shoot, trying some kinds of photography, from landscapes to nature and portraits. Growing my passion, I've passed to the reflex world, using for all the time two prime lenses, a 50 mm and a 35 mm. I like a high contrast black/white and a cross processing colour in my pictures.
I focus my attention mostly on street photography, but also on reportage and microstock, publishing my pictures on this website, on Flickr and on Vogue. In the 2013 I became contributor on iStockphoto, one of the most important royalty free stock photo agency by Getty Images. In the 2019 I change my setup, following the smart and warm heart in an old style body of Fujifilm. The world is still, for me, at 35 mm.
Why street photography? Because I love to get the meaning of human actions, actions that can be ironical, curious, dramatic or just neglected and invisible since we never pay attention to ourselves. Currently, I walk around the city with my camera hanging by neck, looking for the perfect moment that, maybe, is never going to come. I struggle to smooth the imperfection which belongs to any kind of art with the desire to grow not only artistically but also personally. I hope to meet you in the street one day, and have a coffee together, one of the pleasures I will never say no to. Thanks for being here... And when you go, please let door slightly open.
