Falling from Grace

This month we will be featured in Look Magazine, an italian fashion magazine, with our editorial “Falling from grace”. In the pictures you will see six models falling down to the ground. This is Ginevra and here’s her last letter:

Fews are words, since few is vitality who still lodge in my body. Fews are the reasons for what i’ll say goodbye, since fews are the reasons for not doing it. I’ll wait here, upon this precipice, that winds choose for me  And conducts my corpse deep down this cement valley. Right before Flying.

words by: Luigi Di Capua - Stylist: Danilo Attardi (www.adverso.net) – Make Up: Chiara Corsaletti – Typography: Arturo Vittorioso

Models: Ginevra, Livia, Anita, Rosaline, Clara and Benedetta (at glamour model agency, Roma)

Back Home

Our workshop experience at the Padova Vintage Festival has been a blast!  A good teaching experience for both us and the audience. We tried to focus on what most lectures often lack of: connection between speaker’s experience and the audience. Enrico and I talked about concepts and technicalities of creating personal projects – in our opinion the real core of a photographer’s attempt to succeed. A lecture, followed by an animated still life set (by the way, we apologize for the ones who weren’t able to take part because of limited space, lesson learned- ) . Stay tuned to see the results of the shooting and to find out the winner of the contest is.

A huge “thank you” to the organization, in particular Paolo Orsacchini and Nicole Tressoldi for their infinite help. See you next year! (yes, we’ve been confirmed for the 2012 edition).

Shoot, share, get noticed.

We’re putting the final touches to our lecture “Shoot, Share, Get Noticed” for the Vintage Festival in Padova. The workshop/laboratory we’ve been asked to produce, will touch interesting topics on advertising photography, conceptual thinking, self promotion and, last but not least, a practical section in which we will be lighting and photographing.

The whole event is free, and the other workshops are very, very cool as well. Come say hi to us, it’s always nice to get some support.

Just eat!

Four months of hard work with Carosello Lab under the creative direction of Marimo and the new Unilever/Santa Rosa packs came to life! Go to your local supermarket and look for all brand new 18 jams and the 4 pasta tomato sauces. Enjoy!

North Shore Adventures

While visiting Oahu’s North Shore with my girlfriend Livia, I’ve met a bunch of cool guys, which rented us a supercool treehouse in front of the world famous Sunset Beach. Summer isn’t the best season for surfing here so we went with John, Anton, Paul and Pita to a secret spot where they kite surfed. Everyone had a blast over there and we also saw some huge sea turtles! Thank you for the good time guys, can’t wait for the moonlight surfing tonight!
