Lifestyle

A professional and passionate photographer, he collaborates with major international editorial offices and agencies that have brought him recognition in the advertising and fashion world. At the same time, he has pursued a personal artistic journey for years, with a deeply intimate approach. Following his own sensitivity, he has created an ever-evolving collection of shots that express the authentic essence of his gaze, revealing an eclectic interpretative ability.

Massimo was born in Reggio Emilia in 1968 and has been capturing what surrounds him since childhood, and since then, he instinctively recognizes his shots when he is filled with a state of inner calm and tranquility. This spontaneous and immediate detachment has always been a constant in his work, not coincidentally, he is a representative of the “Istintiformativismo” movement founded by artist Flavio Renzetti.

He defines himself as someone fascinated by what remains aesthetically unchanged and silent over time.
