My latest "Out of Office" reply read: "A recent study found that vacations are good for the brain and can increase performance at work. This calls for further research!".
Well, my brain is refreshed, my spirit is happy, my body is rejuvenated (and chunkier 🥴), and it's time to share some beautiful memories of Patagonia, Argentina.
Patagonia is the land of lore and legend. On South America’s southern frontier, nature grows wild, barren and beautiful. Spaces are large, as are the silences that fill them.
What's your biggest passion? Mine is to travel. I live by the quote of Susan Sontag: "I haven't been everywhere, but it's on my list".
The latest journey took me the beautiful Puerto Rico: an island full of history and art, a territory with a landscape of green mountain, waterfalls and tropical forest, gorgeous beaches, coral reefs, surfing and sailing. A 2 hours flight from the Turks and Caicos with interCaribbean, and the splendour of the Puerto Rico welcomes you with charm and variety.
A few fun facts about Puerto Rico: it's basically 70-80 degrees all year around; it has the world's largest telescope; Â there are 270 miles of Beaches; 5 Miss Universe winners are from Puerto Rico; it's a spelunker's playground;Â there is never a shortage of rum... I loved the waves and the secluded coves - what about you?
A look back at the past: April 2010 - Peru’. It was and it will always be one of the best trip of my life: an amazing country, full of vibrant colours, history, amazing people and breathtaking sceneries.
Known across the world for the mystical UNESCO World Heritage site of Mach Pichu, Peru’ has so much to offer to a curios and interested traveller. From the desert and oasis of Lima, at sea level, to the plateau of Puno, at 4338m (over 14.232f), from the floating Uros Islands on Lake Titicaca, to the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Delicious food, colourful art and craft, friendly smiles and so much beauty.
A deserted beach, the sound of the ocean, the sun setting in the water, the bride, the groom... eloping to the Turks and Caicos was the perfect answer to the dreamed "wedding in paradise" of Amy & Chris.
The beautiful couple chose the modern Gansevoort Turks and Caicos for they stay but fell in love with Leeward Beach, after viewing the images of this secluded location on the Attimi Photography Album. 2 is better then one, so I photographed their love at the resort and, of course, on the beach.
A special thank you to Lynne from Nila Destinations, for the perfect organisation and the last minute arrangements, to Pastor Coleby for the sweet ceremony, and to God for stopping the rain just in time to bless Amy & Chris union :-)
Relax, grab a cup of coffee (preferably Colombian), forget your reality and enjoy a journey of Colombia through my eyes. With over 48 million people, Colombia is a country rich of tradition, history, contrasts, vibrant urban life, stunning natural parks, and an amazing cultural heritage.
Ecologically, Colombia is one of the world's 17 megadiverse countries, and it's considered the most biodiverse per square km.  The nation is a middle power with the third largest economy in Latin America. Forget the bad reputation, this nation is fascinating and full of surprises.
Love is the air and the world population is growing a baby at the time. Chantelle and Any are expecting their first kid, a gorgeous boy with intense eyes and dark hair (well, I guess!). The couple chose to spend their babymoon in the Turks and Caicos Islands, booking my photography services to capture a collection of soft, beautiful maternity pictures.
I loved to hear their love story, the details of their Indian wedding, the search for the perfect name and much more.
"We want something intimate and simple, but memorable" - Ivonne.
Wish granted! Ivonne and Bernie eloped to the Turks and Caicos Islands and exchanged their vows on the pristine Leeward Beach. The crushing waves sang their wedding song and the sunset light blessed their union.
Last November, for medical reasons, I left the island and travelled to Washington DC and Virginia. My dear friend Meghan opened the door of her home &Â heart, to offer me the best stay possible. Together we visited to core of Washington DC, one of the most beautiful American city (according to me): I love the monuments, the history, the culture, the art, the nature of the fascinating capital.
I'm addicted to the TV series "Scandal", and my mind couldn't help it but creating fun stories about every politician I crossed ;-)
A collection of beautiful images is one of the best way to remember your wonderful vacation spent with the people you love the most. When the kids cooperate, have fun and smile away, the family portrait suddenly gives a reason to mom to start an happy dance, and a vision for the home re-decoration.
Three sweet kids, gorgeous parents, a touch of vibrant colours, the amazing beach of The Tuscany resort: this family photo session couldn't be better. I felt so lucky!
Am I an expert pet photographer? I'm afraid not. But when Ingrid and Wolfgang contacted me to photograph their beautiful old english sheepdogs I immediately got excited about it. Kids move, run and often don't listen, so I was ready to take the dog challenge ;-)
