The idea of giving birth to an academy was born almost by chance, like all true things, they start quietly along a road until they meet the one with which to deal with the future.

By chance I came to Trieste, by chance I found one of the most beautiful spaces in the city, by chance, talking to a friend, the first structure of the Academy was born. Many sleepless nights and the project came to life.

The Academy is a place where we talk about photography, the real one.

Where the experience is queen both when it is direct, and when it is transmitted from one photographer to another. The Academy is the home of photographers who find a place where they are enhanced, proposed in the commercial world, where they find installation rooms and equipment, a meeting room for 40 seats, an art gallery.

Not just professionals or aspirants. There is also room for amateurs, evolved or not. There are courses, evenings and themed courses; workshops in which to deepen the knowledge of techniques or authors, we organize exhibitions and photographic events.

A hotbed of ideas where there is also space for professionals who orbit around the photographer. Make-up artists and make-up artists, stylist, blogger, influencer.

Two key programs of the Academy are the Professional Management and Talent Management.

The first meets emerging professionals and accompanies them in the professional world, the second prepares the talents to be ready for the profession and aspire to enter the Academy.

A meeting point between photographers, image professionals, customers (agencies, graphic studios, companies) where respect for the professionalism of all establish the conditions to give dignity to photographs, unique and true conductors of messages and emotions.
