Events & Gatherings

I photograph events the way they are lived. From the inside.

Dinners, private parties, brand gatherings and celebrations, approached with an editorial eye, focusing on people, energy, and the moments that usually go unnoticed.

Family Storybooks

Real families.
Real life.
Told like a story.

Family Storybooks are not traditional family sessions.
Reality becomes a set. Everyday life becomes narrative.

I plan and stage a series of photographs within the family’s own environment and in meaningful locations, recreating moments that reflect their inner life — with a touch of humor.

Each project is conceived as an authored visual story and takes the form of a book.

Available as a limited number of commissions per year.

Editorial Weddings

Weddings,
without the clichés.
Observed, never staged.

I photograph weddings with an editorial approach — focusing on atmosphere, relationships, and everything that happens in between.

No staging, no forced emotions. Just real moments, human energy, and the quiet details that usually go unnoticed.

Especially suited for couples seeking something personal, cultural, and unconventional. — whether in Los Angeles, Italy, or abroad.

I take on a very limited number of wedding commissions each year.

Her work spans editorial commissions, books, and personal projects, driven by a sustained curiosity for people, energy, and the moments in between.

Studio Zita extends this editorial approach into a small number of selected private projects — events, family storybooks, and a very limited number of weddings, conceived as visual stories rather than traditional coverage.
