ANDREA COLARIETI
Me, Myself and I
I'm a young italian photographer and I come from Rome. I love the city where I live and it's often a source of inspiration for my photos: people, places, colours and facts are what I'm looking for.
Obviously an ideal environment facilitates the creative process and I'm very lucky to live in a town where this can be possible!
​
My shots are published by international newspapers and magazines such as Digital Camera World, The Independent, Huffington Post...

My Photography
I cover different kinds of photogaphy, that range from nature (landscapes, animals, plants) - both "macro-" and "micro-world" - to still-life. This one is my favourite and I'm specialized in drop photography: drop of water or other liquids, static or in collision. I also practise street-photography as I think that citylife is a great source of events which a photographer can immortalize. I'm rarely interested in the product and commercial photography.
Equipment and Technical
I create my equipment, using alternative materials so as to achieve the desired effect. For the macro photography I reach high magnification through extension tubes in alternative to dedicated common lenses, as to plunge myself into the microworld, immortalizing subjects from different points of view. Vintage lenses are my main choice.
