This summer has been an incredibly pivotal moment in my life - a transition from student life at the University of Virginia to professional life in the MaisonSabbatini, from the Americas to Europe - one of the most important steps toward my future I've taken so far.
I entered this new world looking all around me wide-eyed, simultaneously out of nervousness and excitment.

I never put my camera down.

I felt the need to immortalize this photographic period in my life through my first self-published book of photographs, a collection of portraits taken in Milano, Italy (my city of origin) and Budapest, Hungary (a city from which my blood originates) - all characters I had the pleasure of sharing an instant of life with during the SUMMER of 2008.

This version is in STANDARD SIZE, which is more economical and can be purchased softcover. However, a LARGE FORMAT hardcover version of the book is available, which presents the photographs to their full potential.

One last thing, please help me out and let anyone you think may be interested know about this!

Thank you - and I hope I can photograph you someday..

Special thanks to my mother, Moma, Nonno John, Dustin Thompson, Olivia, my father, and the MaisonSabbatini and all its extraordinary creatures.
