Summer garden - photoshoot with a little girl | Palermo, Sicily

Adventures of a little girl in summer garden. Palermo, Sicily.


There is a story behind this photograph. It happened almost completely accidentally.

Bianca was playing with her friend and having fun, till her friend left. She was disappointed. She walked away and sat alone just to show us how upset she was. But it only lasted a few short seconds before she went back to play.

And I noticed something in her expression. It was a bit lonely and a bit sad, very personal. There was something really catching in it. The type of expression that lets you know everything about a person in a single glance. When her mom saw it, she could not stop commenting on this one photo because she was so excited. The picture shows the character, the special face of this little girl. And in certain sense you could say it was luck, I had no idea it was going to happen. But the magic of pictures is just that - when you capture something so spontaneous that you could never imagine it and it all comes down to being present. This photo is one of my all-time favourites.

The aim for this session was to have pictures that capture Bianca's personality - so we organised it as playtime in the garden, with ice-cream and basket for flowers, hide and seek and other games. I always try to let the child lead - because this way we truly get the photos capturing his or her character, what your little one likes to do, natural expressions and special quirks. Beautiful summer garden and bright flowers were the perfect background and our colourful accessories - I took huge variety of candid portraits, photos of Bianca playing and interacting with her grandparents, enjoying ice-cream. Here are some more of my favourites.
