MISTIQUE OUIDAH – DIEU EST CAMÉLÉON
Directed by Matteo Perini, Simone Stefanelli. A documentary genre film – Italy, 2015, duration 52 minutes.
For thousands of years the mysterious and cryptic Voodoo faith has played a fundamental role on the populations of West Africa, in the Gulf of Guinea. In 2015, two reporter left for Ouidah for the third time. They try to discover what lies behind religious mysteries that at first glance seem inextricable, discovering not only the dynamics of the Voodoo faith, but a mixture of apparently distant and incompatible religions. This constellation of faiths seems to compose an umbilical cord that intimately binds the population: a magical mental and social condition that proves to be extremely unique and precious, especially in this moment of instability due to the disruptive action carried out by extremist groups.

August 2014. The Spartiti per Scutari Orkestra, an orchestra of traditional Albanian music, composed almost entirely of Italian musicians, goes on tour through the Balkans for the first time, taking a long bus journey to Kosovo and Albania.

I am available for portraits and weddings photo shoots.
I like to photograph in a careful way and interfering minimally, with reportage style.
I take moments naturally, as far as possible. For me it’s a really nice and fulfilling to work this way, a deeper and authentic way.
My technical skills also come from the world of naturalistic and show photography, I dedicate myself to grasping the fleeting expressiveness, the subtle glances, the complicity, everything that makes the so volatile feelings that one feel during these unique moments really live and real.
I find myself feeling like a privileged spectator, with a delicate intimacy, granted to a few. I truly believe that my work is precious, so precious to be able to leave a trace of this uniqueness, of this wonder.
I think that marriage is a unique event where at the center of attention are the well-being of the spouses and the desire to support them in every way, in the small or large difficulties that may arise, they are really attentive to the human and sensitive aspect of the people participating in the ceremony. My attention comes from a personal propensity developed also in the school of social reportage that I have behind me.
For weddings I work with my friend and collegue Marco Mastroianni.
