Why work with me

 

You don't need a makeover.

You don't need to be told how to feel.

You just want to be seen--for who you are.

That's what I offer.


I photograph people and horses with patience, respect, and zero performance.

 

As a portrait photographer working in Switzerland and Northern Italy, I create a space that feels relaxed, not staged.

No rigid poses, no forced smiles. 
No twisting your body into something unnatural, just to meet someone else's idea of what's flattering. 

You won't be pushed to do anything that doesn't feel right. 

you get to show up as you are.

And I'll meet you there.,


You don't have to be anything other than yourself.

Whichever project you and I are working on, you don't need to shrink, hide, or perform.

I offer you an inclusive space. 

There's room for all bodies, al identities, and all kinds of personalities.


I know what it's like not to fit in.

 

I'm autistic. I have tattoos, piercings, a red mohawk.

I don't walk into rooms expecting to blend in.

So when I say you don't need to be anything other than yourself during a session, I absolutely mean it.


I don't do hype. I do honesty.

I don't promise a life-changing transformation.

I don't sell empowerment in glittery wrapping. 

But I will give you space to let go of expectations for a moment.

And that's often more powerful than anything else.


I'm not for everyone.

 

If you're looking for glamour, heavy editing, or Pinterest-style sessions--this probably isn't the right fit. 

But if you want something honest, personal, and grounded--you might feel right at home here.


Curious to see what this could look like for you?

 

I'm happy to answer all your questions--no pressure, ever.
