A course by MASSIMO BIANCHI
Massimo Bianchi is a still life photographer specialized in beauty, fashion, and jewelry photography, who boasts collaborations with magazines such as Vogue Italia and Vanity Fair, as well as with brands including Dolce&Gabbana, Versace, Furla, and Bulgari.
After studying at the historic Riccardo Bauer institute in Milan, he began to make his way as an assistant photographer for interior design, advertising, fashion, and publishing. With the experience and security gained, he then set up his own studio.
Fascinated by the search for the sublime in nature, he describes himself as a "lover of the beautiful and the complicated." In fact, Massimo commits himself body and soul to any work challenge, while also having fun building props and sets by himself.
Still life photography is his preferred medium—a path he has chosen with awareness from the beginning due to the infinite possibilities of creation and research offered by objects, materials, and their interaction with light.
