Paparazzi-style photography
— real, unposed, unmistakably Florence.
Florence seen differently.
You, captured like a
cinematic moment.
But first — meet your photographer.
Ciao, I’m Sarah, a Brazilian storyteller living in Florence. Journalist, photographer, and a professional observer of people.
With over 10 years of photography behind me, I now have the privilege of living in one of the most photogenic cities in the world — capturing Florence with instinct, timing, and a love for unposed moments.
I know exactly how it feels to travel and end up with no photos that feel like you
When you travel alone, you live extraordinary moments — but the only proof you bring home are quick selfies. Or you rely on strangers to take your photo, and the result never matches the way the moment felt.
You dream of Florence for years, imagining that cinematic version of yourself walking through Ponte Vecchio at sunset, kissing in a small street in San Niccolò. But when you finally arrive... the photos you get are flat, rushed, forgettable.
I’ve been that traveler many times. And because I always carried a camera, I realized: Sometimes, all someone needs is to be seen by someone who knows how to see.
That’s why I created this:
an experience for people who want real, unposed, timeless images.
Not tourist clichés, not influencer poses that feel fake and awkward, and not those accidental blurred photos — unless they’re intentionally crafted to feel cinematic.
A photoshoot that feels
like exploring Florence with a friend.
1. We meet and start a simple walk.
I already have a route in mind — the most cinematic corners, soft light, and iconic views — so you don’t have to plan anything. Just show up and enjoy the moment.
2. You explore, I observe.
We walk, we talk, you experience the city the way you naturally would. Nothing feels staged. I guide only when needed, never forcing poses.
3. The city becomes our set.
Piazzale Michelangelo at sunrise, Ponte Vecchio at golden hour, quiet alleys in Santo Spirito, hidden spots to eat and drink — Florence moves with you, and I photograph the moments you don’t even notice happening.
4. You enjoy. I take care of the rest.
Relax, be present, and let your story unfold. I’ll deliver a gallery of images that document your trip and feel effortless and real.

Absolutely. I propose routes because they work beautifully with light and timing, but I’m happy to adjust the walk to places that are meaningful to you — as long as they fit the timeframe of the sessio

Yes — all sessions are done on foot because Florence’s most cinematic locations are accessible only by walking. The routes are easy, with gentle pacing and plenty of stops for photos, coffee, or gelato.

Wear something that feels like you, but slightly elevated — neutral tones, layers, textures, coats, or dresses work very well. Avoid busy logos or neon colors.

No problem — most of my clients feel the same way. My style is natural, and movement-based, but if you’re very shy, I do have a few gentle, simple prompts that help you relax without feeling staged. Think of it as subtle direction, not posing. You’ll look natural, connected, and completely like yourselves.
