A British and Italian Art Lover : Come (Portrait) Photographer
Born in Geneva, from an Italian father and an English mother, I grew up traveling around the world, photographing architecture and studying art. As a graduate from the University of Geneva in Art History, I took many photography and image editing classes. Since the birth of my first daughter in 2014, I felt the need to document our lives in more depth and I decided to specialize in taking portraits in every way and on all occasions.
More recently I attended several workshops in professional photography to perfect myself in the photography of timeless portraits, especially portraits of newborns ("newborn posing" safety, I have a certificate in CPR for babies), maternity, families, individuals and groups (glamor, family, business, personal branding). Full of energy, creativity and a sense of detail, I enjoy working with each person to create beautiful images that transcend time and immortalize precious moments. I love interacting with people, showing them their natural beauty and creating beautiful memories. For that, I take a lot of time, because it is important for me to tell your story and make pictures that will last eternally.

Personal portraits
Have you always dreamed of a personalized photoshoot? Do you need personal branding images for your website or executive headshots for social media?
Whatever you need we can work together to make the best portraits that suit you, in the location of your choice.
I like to use natural light or strobes to achieve the look that makes you look your best, at my studio in Geneva, Switzerland, in your office or anywhere you would like to have your portraits taken.
Maternity
Between your 6th and 8th month, I propose a variety of different types of maternity sessions:
A session at my home studio in Grand-Saconnex, in the Canton of Geneva with dresses and accessories available.
A lifestyle session in your home, outdoors, in some of my favourite places of the Lake Geneva area, such as Nyon, Morges, Lausanne, Vevey or Montreux, or in your favorite places: I love to travel and take photos everywhere!
Pregnancy
Ideally between 28 and 36 weeks, I propose a variety of different types of maternity sessions:
A session at my studio in the Canton of Geneva with dresses and accessories available.
A lifestyle session in your home, outdoors, in some of my favourite places of the Lake Geneva area, such as Nyon, Morges, Lausanne, Vevey or Montreux, or in your favorite places: I love to travel and take photos everywhere!
Newborn baby
The choice of your photographer for the first photo shoot of your newborn is of utmost importance. I focus on aesthetics but also on safety (I have a certificate in baby safety, first aid and CPR).
The session takes place between the 5th and the 15th day of your newborn at my studio in Geneva or in your home. It follows the rhythm of your child so that the session is as pleasant for your baby as it is for you. You also have a choice between lifestyle photos and newborn posing, or a mix of both.
Familiy
Family sessions can be held all year round. They are a time to enjoy being together and make long-lasting memories.
A session at my studio in Geneva, Switzerland, or a lifestyle session in your home, outdoors, in some of my favourite places of Suisse Romande, such as Morges, Vevey, Geneva, Nyon, Lausanne, or Montreux, or in any of your favorite places: I love to travel and take photos everywhere!
