December 2025 - Previews

I look at these pictures and feel a certain warmth in my heart: taken in the usual, familiar corners of my house, that hosted god knows how many of my sets during the years! Seeing these pictures and then thinking about how much has the outside world changed meanwhile, how much I have changed, ma...

November - part 3

If discovering new interesting sources of light in my house was a sport, I’d be bringing it to the olimpics. So grateful for my little reading lamp, its warm, humble light made these pixels possible, and gave me a sprinkle of much needed energy. Do you like this mood? 🔥

November - part 1 and 2

It’s been a real busy period! Day in, day out, trying to check as much as possible from the to-do list, but always leaving something behind. And those thing left behind are usually the ones that would save me from another burnout. I’ve spent most of my time buried in books, or doing house cho...

October sets

The luck! The fortune! The blessing of such a good weather on the only day available for me to escape from the city and go location-scouting! I was sick - actually I've been sick for weeks - like some kind of never-ending flu, but ready to visit the mountains nearby. I just needed to witness that...

Morning at the gardens

The second and third sets of September were made in a 16th century garden. When I got there, I didn't know what to expect, I was hoping for a peaceful walk in nature and to catch a little bit of Sun. Luckily, the camera was in our car, ready to be used, and when I saw these stone and marble struc...

First set of September

I'm starting to believe I'm too old for glamour. Yeah, I said it. Stretching my body in such unnatural poses feels awful, but I must admit the view didn't totally disappoint me. As a matter of fact, to get the most out of this experience, I've decided to act sexy without even wearing makeup and ...

August Sets

About this month all I want to say is that I've been exhausted. My sleep schedule was compromised by a positive change (quitting a pharmaceutical therapy), so I temporarily find it difficult to fall asleep, experience frequent nightmares and wake up several times during the night. I knew this was...

Third of July

A picture that describes the lightheartedness and confidence that I've gained in the latest few days, ending my exam period and entering two weeks of well deserved rest. Yeah, I'm still studying, and I will continue for a while, but from now on, I sense it will not cost me as much as it did in th...

Second set of July

I already owe a lot to that 20€ gown, that I've paired to a corset here, just to dissimulate the fact that I haven't bought anything new in almost a year. Mind, I don't say it as a complaint: I'm actively boycotting fast fashion and some of the most popular fashion brands since 2020, and both m...

First set of July

One year ago, we were suffering under the weight of a heavy, cruel heat wave, here in northern Italy; it was so bad that I had no other choice but to shoot deep into the night. On work days, me and my husband would take a "nap" after dinner, and wake up at midnight to go out and take photos. This...

Beauty of the sea

This June gifted me with a much needed opportunity to go on a little, sweet vacation with friends. The trip and destination were already planned, and turned out to be just perfect. We've spent a week in Arbe island (Croatia), enjoying the gentleness of the Adriatic sea, and worshipping a Sun that...

Sweet May afternoons

It was such a pleasure to shoot for you this month! Spring has been quite rainy here, so any sunny afternoon that came, I ran outside to catch as much vitamin D as possible, and, of course, to take photos <3 The first set happened when I've accidentally found a piece of land full of cherry tre...

April - second set

Although the environment is almost completely hidden behind thick black shadows, it was a pleasure for me to take these photos in the woods. I’ve been saving that crochet garment I made this winter, for a shooting under the sun, but I couldn’t imagine the weather would get warm enough in Apr...

April - first set

My confidence drops a lot when I wear everyday clothes, and in this set it really shows; despite of the casual approach, I still love the light that passes through that kitchen window. I'd need to count how many sets happened in that little spot of my house!

March 2025

Brief moments of warmth and fragrant, sweet winds welcome this Spring, and awaken our tense muscles once again. I had to try and shoot outside, and even if the rain chased- and finally reached me - I'm so glad I did. Yeah, it was raining during the first set, but would it have been as cool withou...

May this every never be extinguished in me

January sets

A month like this makes me more incline to believe in all those superstitions that connect psychology with the stars, the planets and the universe; the emotional rollercoaster I went through lately is absolutely unrelatable to any event that might have happened to me; in fact, it was a quite bori...

Second half of 2024

Here are some of my most recent self-portraits, taken between July and December 2024. I’m so proud to say that, some of these photos, have become my personal favorite, out of all the pixels I’ve ever created. Hoping to keep on being blessed by the wonders of inspiration, I wish you a happy ce...

First half of 2024

It should be tradition to take a moment and look back at the things we’ve been through during the passing year, to honour all the new scars and the old, persisting habits. And how easy it is for me to do so, thanks to this amazing, crazy self-portraiture journey that I so gladly share with you....

December sets 🎄🌙🧚

Seeing all the previews together really makes it obvious that this month I felt good in my skin. Especially compared to the last few months, December brought me to embrace my nudity, my sensuality and the comfort of my home again, after a period of dizziness and distraction. Womanhood really is a...

November

As soon as mornings started to drown in fog, I gained back that sense of belonging that I missed for so long. The familiar, little discomforts that my birthmonth brings into the everyday, have this strange ability to put me right back in touch with the present, and suddenly every little pleasure ...

The other October sets

So here are, as usual, the previews from my latest October self-portraiture sets. The concepts here are very candid and relaxed: I just tried to capture some lights in my house.

To do boudoir self-portraiture, means that you need to resurrect all of the self-love that you have inside, and ...

The October set

That's it, this is the one. Yes, there are two more sets paired to this, all made in October, but only this one gives me what I expect from an autumnal creative session. See, this very period is traditionally very inspiring to me; I've always been highly sensitive to the magic of Autumn, to its t...

Dancing with Fire

I’m so thrilled by the results of my first attempt to shoot in this interesting, but very difficult corner of my hometown 🔥 I’ve been hoping to create under this gallery for almost a year, not only for its atmosphere, but also because it’s situated quite near my neighbourhood. The main, ...

Second set of August

My cube of light works it’s magic once again, with the favour of a brand new white wall 🌊 Still having issues with autofocus btw, not sure if I’ll ever figure it out.

Balance issues

I haven't trained for months and it shows. My left foot does not seem to wish to carry any of my weight properly. God save my calves!

How are you doinggg?

Green light by night

I'll need to collect all of my shootings in the dark, cause I think they'd make sense together. This habit started for necessity: extreme weather that either hides the Sun too much, or makes it unbearable to stand. But then, I shortly grew fond of letting the shadows rule, and be guided by one si...

IMPORTANT - if you use the Patreon App

Hi people, so here's a link that explains how Apple is trying to thwart this community, by demanding extra fees for any purchase made in the iOS Patreon App.

Please take a minute to read into it, but long story short: I'll have to cover those fees by making my tiers more expensive if purch...

Night session again

Blame it on global warming. It was 1 am when I took these photos, and you can still see the sweat on my face. I just had to capture the light in that corner, didn't need to edit a thing. I'm noticing the quality of the photo is bad here, but I'm positive you will get a decent resolution. Just let...
