At Valdirose, everything speaks of details carefully planned, traditions of the past, and memories of happy moments. How could we not shoot in there in a similar way? Film, and our vintage cameras, in our opinion perfectly suggest the mood of the place, but anyhow, you should really pay a visit to discover two beautiful souls, Paolo and Irene, to taste their cakes and to savor their enchanting tuscan accent.

When Melissa contacted us for a portrait session on film we were super happy! She's an amazing American film photographer in love with Italy, and we spent a great afternoon with her. Camogli was in our mind since the beginning of our conversation as a possible location. The pastel colored houses, the sea, the little church…everything screams Italy! We were lucky enough to have a little sunshine before sunset, then epic clouds and finally rain. Nothing that gelato and cappuccino can't fix.
Shot with Contax 645 | Kodak Portra 400 & Kodak Portra 800 | Developed and Scanned by Carmencita Film Lab & Nikon D700.

PNW - The great Pacific Northwest on Film
Our favorite photographers come from the Pacific Northwest.
One of our fav tv series was filmed in Washington State.
Our fav magazine, and all the slow life inspiration we love so much, was crated there, and their HQ is even more gorgeous than you would expect.
And then, there is a magical place, we always dreamed of visiting.
So here you are our travel reportage. Oregon and Washington States, and a stopover in the beautiful Chicago, who has the best film shop ever seen. (Almost) everything was shot on film, unless it was too windy ( oh, Chicago winds!), cold or rainy. Because a slow, meaningful life means savoring every bite of it, with no hurry, or pressure, even the one that forces you to constantly check pictures on a screen, after you click the shutter. Hope you can enjoy it. Slowly, of course.
Shot with Contax 645 + Carl Zeiss 80mm f/2 + Kodak Portra 400 + Kodak Portra 800. Dev & Scanned by Carmencita Film Lab
At times, when the contax was not handy, or it was too cold or rainy we also shot digital, with a Nikon D800 + 50mm f/1.4. Here you are some more pics:
2014 in review
More sleep. More music. More tea. More books. More sunsets. More creating. More long walks. More laughter. More hugs. More dreaming. More road trips. More fun. More love.
We got all of this during the last year, and we want to share with you all the moments and people who touched our hearts. Thank you for making our 2014 so special.
All shot with our beloved Nikon D700 & D800 & Contax 645. For the pictures with both of us, we have to say a big thank you to Gloria and Anna.
We strongly suggest to press play!
