Hello! My name is Barbara and I would like to welcome you to my website.

I was born and raised in Italy and moved to New York in my early twenties.
Photography has always been my passion and I have been working as a portrait photographer on Long Island for the past five years.

Photo sessions with me are very relaxed and never rushed.
I especially love photographing children. I specialize in capturing their unique expressions and personalities just as they are in their natural environment. I give very little direction while they are playing and allow them to just be themselves. This enables me to capture their true spirit through a spontaneous smile or more pensive expression.

I feel very fortunate to have many clients who come back year after year and have given me the opportunity to photograph their children as they grow. My style is fresh, clean and classic and the photographs are timeless.

I love to work mostly using available light while incorporating the surroundings in my photographs.
In addition to my custom portrait clients, I’ve also been working closely with one of Long Island top advertising agencies on commercial accounts.

BIOGRAPHY

Born and raised in Italy, Barbara, in her early teens, became
fascinated with the work by the photographers of National
Geographic. This interest led to her first job as an apprentice
in a photographic studio in Genoa.

Her love for travel and photography led her to her next position
as a cruise ship photographer which enabled her to visit and
photograph most of the Caribbean, West Indies and Bermuda.

Following these travels she moved to New York, worked briefly
as a graphic designer and then as Art Director for the largest
Italian advertising agency in Manhattan.

Barbara is currently working as a custom portrait photographer
for her private clientele and for commercial accounts.
Barbara lives on Long Island, New York with her husband
and two children.
