We tell love stories because we live one.
A creative duo
ABOUT US
On and off-camera
LELE
I grew up in Mantova, a small town in northern Italy, surrounded by hugs, good coffee, lots of pasta, and wonderful friends.
I fell in love with photography when I was seven years old, and even if I didn’t yet understand its power to tell meaningful stories, I knew I wanted to use it for something impactful. When I became a scout at nine, I made a lifelong promise to serve others, and my camera became my way of keeping that promise. Behind the lens, I feel invincible—it’s become an extension of me, a way of understanding, pausing, and truly seeing the world with care and intention. Trapped in me is an inescapable desire to create and make people smile.
At 17, I left Italy for the United States to study English and start a new chapter. I ended up staying for seven years—earning two degrees, studying and working alongside incredible photographers and artists, and gaining hands-on experience as a photographer, visual artist, videographer, professor, journalist, and artistic curator.
By 2019, I had already launched my full-time photography business, working across portraits, weddings, branding, and commercial work. I collaborated with creatives, couples, and companies—telling their stories through editorial-inspired, emotionally grounded images.
I earned a BFA in Photography and Art from USU, minored in Economics, and hold a cinematography certification from UCLA. Over the years, I’ve mastered large-format film, 35mm, digital photography, retouching, and historical photographic processes like wet plate collodion and cyanotypes.
But photography is more than a job—it’s my obsession.
After years of working around the world, I’m back in Italy—grounded, grateful, and more inspired than ever—bringing my international experience and artistic vision to every project I take on. I am incredibly grateful to have met and now be working alongside Max and a fantastic team, who inspires me to be better every single day. Max specifically can balance how I am, and having more love into my life thanks to him has made me better at noticing love everywhere around me.
I think that any story has intrinsic value, and deserves to be told.
When I’m not shooting for clients, I work on critical issues projects—from human rights to climate change. My award-winning thesis, Credimi, Chiamami, Vedimi, a documentary project on trans identities, has been exhibited in over six countries. I’ve won grants to document NGO work in Brazil and Malta, co-created a play merging theatre with historical photographic techniques, and participated in climate research in Bear Lake, UT. At USU, I was recognized as Talent of the Year, became the first non-scientist to win a Peak Fellowship, and even taught a photography course.
Let’s create something meaningful together.
Let's make some art.
MAX
I grew up in Tooele, Utah, spending most of my time outdoors, building things, and getting my hands into whatever I could. I was always curious: taking things apart, figuring out how they worked, and putting them back together again. I’ve always been more on the introverted side, naturally observant, the kind of person who notices small shifts, subtle details, and the things happening just outside the center of attention.
I found my way into videography early on, long before I understood what it could become. I had a YouTube channel as a kid, filming and editing videos just because I enjoyed it. It was about creating, experimenting, and telling stories in my own way.
Over time, that passion grew into something more intentional. I became more technical, more precise, more interested in the craft behind the visuals. But it wasn’t until I met Lele that everything shifted. What had always been a personal passion turned into a shared vision, and storytelling became something deeper—something that could connect people, preserve memories, and carry meaning.
Today, I work as a videographer, certified drone pilot, and second shooter, using cinema-grade equipment and taking care of much of the technical side behind the scenes.
While Lele is the one leading and connecting with you, I’m always there—quietly capturing the in-between moments, the subtle gestures, the things that aren’t always immediately visible, but matter just as much.
I’m drawn to light, movement, and small details. I like to stay calm, precise, and often a bit invisible, allowing moments to unfold naturally while making sure nothing important is missed.
Working together, we balance each other. Lele brings energy, direction, and connection; I bring a more observant, technical approach. It allows us to tell stories in a way that feels complete.
Moving to Italy has been a dream—and it continues to shape how I see, create, and tell stories every day. The community that we were able to build has brought so much creativity and joy to our business, but also our lives.
I cannot wait to meet you and tell your story.
WHAT IS IT LIKE TO WORK WITH US?
Let’s start by grabbing a coffee—or hop on a call if we cannot meet face to face—so we can chat about exactly what you want. We want to hear all about your vision, your ideas, and what you’re hoping to capture. We'll talk about your dreams and preferences, getting all the logistics down, but also try to understand what type of person you are. Everyone is unique, and we like to approach every single person that comes to us differently, in order to properly represent you and fulfil your wishes and needs. We keep the booking process relatively easy (inquiry, contract, deposit), so that we can reserve your date as fast as possible.
We will check in before to make sure everything is perfect, be there early, scout if needed, and can help with any planning and logistics with eventual other vendors. If you are getting married and it starts feeling overwhelming, we have a whole web of incredible local vendors that we trust and can assist you.
During the shoot, the most important thing is that you feel 100% comfortable with us, and we’ll make sure of that. You (and the people you love) are our only priority. We’ll do whatever it takes to make you feel relaxed, whether that means cracking a joke, dancing around to break the ice, or being more embarrassing than you if you’re feeling shy (trust us, we’ll outdo you every time).
Lele probably be jumping around, hyping you up, getting dirty, singing out loud, and—most likely—falling down.
Max will be a bit further, making sure that you get a second perspective out of every moment, as nothing is one-dimensional.
We will laugh, we will chat, time will pass faster than you can say "cheese." Nothing is off-limits with us, and we want you to feel free to be your full self.
Our favorite question to break the ice is always: "What’s your story?"
We sure hope you’ll tell us yours.
Hope to see you soon.
