About Elena
A slow eye for people, places, and objects.
I grew up in a house full of prints. My father worked in a darkroom, and I learned to read light before I learned to read words. I now photograph people, places, and things that ask for patience.
For the past twelve years I have worked with magazines, studios, and small brands across Italy. My work is quiet and unhurried. I prefer overcast mornings, north-facing windows, and honest color.
When I'm not on assignment, I'm usually driving through the Po Valley with a medium-format camera on the passenger seat.
