I was intrigued by the setting. Why are the people gardening here? What else is there besides working the soil? What do people get out of it? The energy of a garden is quite subtle – it was challenging to capture it and I felt I really had to push myself in new directions to do that. My goal in the future is to work on long term projects that explore the connections between people and their environment.


I am an Italian photographer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am passionate about documentary photography and work with local non-profits documenting their work for social media and other promotional material. I am also interested in urban agriculture and in general in issues related to food and agriculture. For this workshop I chose to shoot a community garden located on the roof top of a gym in central Paris.
