  • We recently worked with dancer and choreographer Agata Olszewska on a portfolio of contemporary-dance-inspired portraits with a squeeze of drama. What a great privilege to witness Agata performing in front of the camera with grace and confidence and capture her movements, her intense expressions, her story! © rinopucci.com 2019  shot in London with Fujifilm GFX 50s -- in my studio at @hotelelephant . . . . . #dancersofinstagram #contemporary #movement #dancersofig #dancerlife  #contemporarydancer #worldwidedance #dance #dancephotography #portraitmood #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #londonphotographer #photooftheday #photographerslife #headshotphotographer #londonportrait #artportrait #photography #portraiture #editorialportrait #mediumformat #londonphotography #londonheadshots #portraitstream #portrait_perfection #portraitvision #studioportrait #portrait #repostmyfujifilm
  • Getting portraits commissioned by fellow creative practitioners is always a great opportunity to learn about different practices. Take Laura Ella for example – she is a costume creative, pattern cutter and printed textile artist. I have huge admiration for Laura's ethos: she provides bespoke special occasion-wear aimed at everyone and anyone by using ethical fabrics and hardware that is animal free, plant-based and unique. Watch this space as Laura and myself will work together on something special – stay tuned! © rinopucci.com 2019 . shot in Manchester with Fujifilm GFX 50s . . . . #portraitmood #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #londonphotographer #photooftheday #photographylovers #headshot #photographerslife #headshotphotographer #londonportrait #artportrait #photography #lnaturallight #portraiture#editorialportrait #manchester #actinglife #mediumformat #photostudio #excellent_portraits #londonphotography #londonheadshots #portraitstream #portrait_perfection #portraitvision #studioportrait #behindthescenes #portrait #enviromentalportrait #repostmyfujifilm
  • Very happy with the new studio in Manchester. The window light I am getting in is amazing! Here is a portrait of Pooja Vadhva @dia_chica – you can judge for yourself the quality of the light. I look forward to shooting with Pooja again. She is a very bright young woman with the sweetest look, but don't mess around with her as she is also a taekwondo athlete among other things – check out her account @dia_fitnesstips as a personal trainer-  specialist in MMA/ boxing. © rinopucci.com 2019 . shot in Manchester with Fujifilm GFX 50s . . . . #portraitmood #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #londonphotographer #photooftheday #photographylovers #headshot #photographerslife #headshotphotographer #londonportrait #artportrait #photography #lnaturallight #portraiture#editorialportrait #manchester #actinglife #mediumformat #photostudio #excellent_portraits #londonphotography #londonheadshots #portraitstream #portrait_perfection #portraitvision #studioportrait #behindthescenes #portrait #enviromentalportrait #repostmyfujifilm
  • To start the week in glory, here is a portrait from a recent session with the very talented Aprine Tan @aprine_ – she is giving the camera a questioning stare which I find absolutely striking. I am recently working a lot in finding new colour schemes and I feel like this portrait is a great step forward – I love how her expression is subtly enhanced by the muted palette of the painted backdrop. (You can read more about my approach to studio portraiture, including painting my own backdrops, in my recent interview in the Hotel Elephant blog – link in bio.) Thank you so much Aprine for being such a wonderful sitter! © rinopucci.com 2019 . shot in London with Fujifilm GFX 50s -- in my studio at @hotelelephant . . . . . #portraitmood #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #londonphotographer #photooftheday #photographylovers #headshot #photographerslife #headshotphotographer #londonportrait #artportrait #photography #portraiture #editorialportrait #actorslife #actinglife #mediumformat #photostudio #excellent_portraits #londonphotography #londonheadshots #portrait_perfection #portraitvision #studioportrait #portrait #enviromentalportrait #repostmyfujifilm #photographybackdrops #setdesign #studioportrait

  • There is something timeless about Natalie Ciufo Green’s poised features in this image that is going to strengthen an already thick and varied portfolio of her as an actor and performer. It’s a portrait which nods to a bygone era, maybe the Fifties, where things had more substance and a certain look could equate to delivering a clean-cut statement , like “take me or leave me”. “When discussing casting – Natalie says – I’m often told that I have a bit of quirky and androgynous look, then let me own it! We should celebrate and use what makes us unique, not try and alter ourselves to ‘who we think others want to see’.” As a photographer, I feel like this image is very much the visual translation of Natalie’s  remarkable attitude: “It’s important to remain honest and humble yet still show your drive. You have to have a lot of determination, discipline, passion and love for what you do. You have to be unapologetic in who you are, your decisions, self belief and dreams. I think this image has managed to capture this completely.” Salvador Dalí once said: “I am the first to be surprised and often terrified by the images I see appear upon my canvas.” As a photographer, I am surprised more than anyone else (without being terrified, I should say) if an image can convey so much and still look so neat, so essential. When it happens, it’s a kind of magic. © rinopucci.com 2019 . shot in Manchester with Fujifilm GFX 50 . . . . #portraitmood #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #londonphotographer #photooftheday #photographylovers #headshot #photographerslife #headshotphotographer #londonportrait #artportrait #photography #lnaturallight #portraiture#editorialportrait #manchester #actinglife #mediumformat #photostudio #excellent_portraits #londonphotography #londonheadshots #portraitstream #portrait_perfection #portraitvision #studioportrait #behindthescenes #portrait #enviromentalportrait #repostmyfujifilm
  • As I am a proud Hotel Elephant member, I recently had the great pleasure to be interviewed by @hotelelephant director Emily Woodhouse for its blog. The link to the full interview is in my bio. I was asked about my photography practice and my overall career and also about the site-responsive art project “Out of (this) place”, which has been already mentioned a few times in this feed as it has been inspired by the building that houses my London studio here at Harper Road. Playing on words, this long-term project is called “Out of (this) place”, to stress that the “here and now” of this place is so different from its past and its foreseeable future. A fictonal story which hopefully will take the shape of a book, "Out of (this) place" is in collaboration with the very talented Stefania Cannone @stefaniacnn who is featured in these portraits and whom I want to thank again for her contribution! © rinopucci.com 2019 shot in London with Fujifilm GFX 50s -- in my studio at @hotelelephant . . . . #portraitmood #portraitoftheday #portraitphotography #londonphotographer #photooftheday #photographylovers #headshot #photographerslife #headshotphotographer #londonportrait #artportrait #photography #lnaturallight #portraiture #editorialportrait #actorslife #actinglife #mediumformat #photostudio #excellent_portraits #londonphotography #londonheadshots #portraitstream #portrait_perfection #portraitvision #studioportrait #behindthescenes #portrait #enviromentalportrait #repostmyfujifilm
