Continue reading →: My Four Seasons of BerlinBerlin is a special city. I’ve been there five times, and each visit felt completely different, as if the city had changed along with me. My first time in Berlin was in the winter of 2010, as I recount in my book La Strada Altrove. Back then, the city appeared…

Continue reading →: Recap May 2026May 2026 has come and gone. It was another month of photographs to file away (only a few of them really worth keeping, to be honest), but also a month of unexpected surprises: one of my photographs will be exhibited in Siena this October.

Continue reading →: Storytelling: Blue WayI took this photo in April 2022, in Marseille. I was traveling for work in Antibes when my return flight was postponed by two days.
