    Stefano Cavallini
    Stefano's love for photography started in 2011 when he tried his friend's DSLR, none of them knew how to use it in a mode other than the auto back at that time, but he could see the big difference with a compact camera or a smartphone. He decided to buy his first DSLR camera and to learn how to use it in manual mode.

    After 5 years, his love and knowledge for photography increased and he managed to upgrade to professional equipment and to open his own business.

    He mainly works in the wedding industry but he loves different kinds of photography, like landscapes and animals.

    Stefano Cavallini is available for private bookings

    Request for availability in :Private tutoring, weddings, portraits, family portraits, engagement and proposal shoot, pre-wedding shoot, maternity, events and commercial.

Full of mood.In my Hull studio, we crafted over 40 powerful shots, but this one stands out?a study in contrast, where light carves through shadow, revealing strength, mystery, and quiet intensity.
