I'm Federico, a very passionate professional photographer with over 12 years of experience with architectural photography, events, weddings, hospitality photography as well as food and portraits. Luckily, I've got many pictures published online and in print in major publications. As Elliott Erwitt was used to say: "To me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them."

How did you get started with photography

Make people look good, follow that. Easy to say hard to do, that is why I apprenticed with the best. Following my University qualification, and hundreds of weddings and engagements is how I got started.

What do you love about your job?

Finding the best angle, lighting and expression of a person in single moment, and knowing how to get there quickly is my favourite part of photography. Keep it simple. Refining a single decisive moment to represent an ideal. That is the challenge.

What are some of your favorite places in Sydney to take photographs?

Locations I choose depends on the persons character, for some Boho laneways, for others traditional Landmarks. Summer, Autumn and Winter all bring varied colours, light and options, so I keep a library online as reference to best suit needs
