Martino B

Ciao! I'm Martino, an Italian photographer with roots on Lake Como, now living by the sea in Valencia, Spain. I've been photographing people for more than 15 years (weddings, proposals, couples and families), and what I love most are real emotions and the in-between moments: the authentic smiles, a hand squeezing another, a glance nobody else noticed. A session with me feels more like a walk with a friend than a photoshoot. No stiff poses: I give you small prompts, keep you moving and talking, and let the real you show up. If you feel awkward in front of a camera, don't worry, most people do for the first five minutes. After that, you forget I'm there. My main goal is to make you enjoy and have fun during the session. I work with Leica cameras and natural light. I like to play with the light and make things shine. I know the city well, so I'll help you choose the right spot and the right time of day to create the images you're dreaming of. When I'm not behind the camera, I'm probably swimming in the Mediterranean, cooking spaghetti for friends (the proper Italian way) or making friends with the nearest dog. My three fears: pineapple pizza, noisy places and jellyfish. We can chat in English, Spanish or Italian, and I'll happily try my Portuguese and French too.
