Graduating in Graphic & Virtual Design, Stefano meets photography as a teenager, thanks to his father and his old OM10. Quite early he puts together this new game with his insane curiosity for insects and spiders, discovering the unseen world of macrophotography. March '06 he participates to a workshop with master Franco Fontana, wich leads him to fall in love with colors, abandoning almost at all b/w photography. Several years later, during fall-winter '08 he's invited as "home photographer" for a local entertainment agency, covering night clubbing, concerts, parties, events. He finally reaches the "human element" wich had always been kind of obstacle for him. February '09, Stefano moves to southern Spain for a semester in Malaga with an Erasmus Scholarship: here he has the chance to attend proper classes of photojournalism and arts applied to photography, developing new personal projects and increasing both technical and expressive skills.

September '09 Stefano joins Loft Imaginarium as technical assistant, and becomes Paolo Ranzani's apprentice.

Special peculiarities: he designed and crafted the bed he sleeps in, Onirica.
