Looking for a family photographer in the Dolomites?
Are you planning a mountain vacation and want to capture authentic moments with your children, partner, or grandparents in one of Italy’s most beautiful settings? The Dolomites—with natural wonders like Lake Braies and the Alpe di Siusi—are the perfect place for a family photo shoot that will remain forever in your hearts and eyes.
As a professional photographer specializing in family portraits in the Dolomites, I create emotional, spontaneous and authentic photo shoots in the midst of nature, at dawn, at sunset or during a walk along the Alpine paths.
Why choose a family photographer in the Dolomites?
Every family has its own story. Photography means telling this story in images, capturing the most genuine expressions: hugs, laughter, glances that say it all without words. And doing so in a majestic landscape like the Dolomites makes every shot even more magical.
