About Marco Alpeggiani

My work is primarily people-based and as soon as I have the opportunity I live in my photo stories which are my main passion.

From 2005 I have been a full time member of the EUROPEAN PRESS FEDERATION (www.ep-fed.eu) and of TAU VISUAL ASSOCIAZIONE NAZIONALE FOTOGRAFI PROFESSIONISTI (www.fotografi.tv)

I love to cover a wide range of works including corporate photography, travel photography, pr photography, event photography, photography for book publishers, editorial photography and wedding photography.

My photographic journey started in March 1999 when I discovered an old Nikon in the bottom draw of my ex girlfriend's flat. Since then my cameras have became an active part of my life……a way to document stories and feelings quite impossible to explain just with words.

"My camera is an excuse to get everywhere, to be there on time, being a witness and ask questions. A way to visually understand my evolving life experience and to communicate words from my heart, the only way I know to reflect myself thought my stories. If you look carefully you will find in them a part of me."
