Photography · San Cassiano, Alta Badia

Photographer in Alta Badia for hotels, restaurants and interiors.

Hotels and apartments, restaurants, interiors and the places around them: I photograph them as they are lived in, in the light they really have.

What I photograph

Places that welcome people.

  • Hospitality: hotels and apartments

    Rooms, shared spaces, outside and the details that make someone choose a place — for the website, the booking portals and social media.

  • Restaurants and food

    The dining room, the table, the dishes and the kitchen at work: the atmosphere of a real service, not only a plate on its own.

  • Interiors and architecture

    Spaces, materials and light, with straight lines and faithful colour — never made into something they are not.

  • Places and atmosphere

    The landscape around a place, its seasons and the moments that tell where it is — from the view of the peaks to the fire in the evening.

Approach

First I understand. Then I photograph.

  1. The place

    What makes it different, who chooses it and why.

  2. The light

    When a room is at its best, when the sun comes in, when the evening is the right moment.

  3. Where the pictures will live

    The website, the booking portals, social media, print: each use asks for different formats and framings.

  4. Then the photographs

    Only then do I photograph — with the place, the light and the use already clear.

Process

Five steps, from the first call to the files.

  1. Brief

    A call or a visit: what is needed, what for, how many photographs and when.

  2. Shoot

    I photograph on site, at the times of light we agreed. How long it takes depends on the spaces and the number of pictures.

  3. Selection

    I choose the best images from the shoot. You pay only for the final photographs.

  4. Post-production

    Colour, exposure and perspective corrected on every photograph, for a natural result.

  5. Delivery

    The final photographs, delivered digitally in high resolution.

Price

One price per final photograph.

€25 per final photograph

Minimum 15 photographs · €375

For example: 20 photographs = €500 · 30 photographs = €750

Included

  • The shoot
  • The selection of the images
  • Professional post-production
  • Colour, exposure and perspective correction
  • Digital delivery

Not included: structural retouching (removing or adding elements) and AI alterations. The photographs stay true to the place.

Where I work

From San Cassiano, across the Dolomites.

I work from San Cassiano, in Alta Badia, and photograph across Val Badia — from Corvara and La Villa to Badia — and the Dolomites of South Tyrol.

For a project further away, just write: any travel is listed in the quote.

Questions

Before you write.

How many photographs do I need?

It depends on where you will use them. An apartment often needs around fifteen; a hotel or a restaurant with more spaces and dishes needs more. The minimum is 15, and we set the number in the brief.

How much does a hotel photo shoot cost?

It depends on how many final photographs you choose: €25 each, with a minimum of 15 (€375). For example, 20 photographs cost €500 and 30 cost €750. Any specific production costs are listed separately in the quote.

How long does a shoot take?

From a few hours to a day, depending on the spaces, the number of photographs and the light they need. We agree it beforehand.

Do you photograph hotels and apartments?

Yes: rooms, shared spaces, the outside, details and the surroundings. In San Cassiano I photographed Planat, a private house with five apartments.

And restaurants?

Yes: the dining room, the table, the dishes and the kitchen at work. In San Cassiano I photographed the restaurant La Raisc.

Can I use the photographs on my website, social media and booking portals?

Yes: they are made for the website, social media, booking portals and your business’s communication. The uses are confirmed in the quote.

Do you also create websites?

Yes. When it helps, I also design and build the website where the photographs do their work, as for PLANAT.IT and La Raisc. You can also start with the photographs alone. Websites →
