AUTHOR
MY NAME IS SAIONARA MASSINI.I WAS BORN IN TUSCANY, ITALY, WHERE I STILL LIVE AND WORK.
PHOTOS AND TRAVEL ARE MY GREATEST PASSIONS.
I'M A PHOTOGRAPHER BY PASSION.
IT'S THE PEOPLE WHO GIVE ME THE STRONGER EMOTIONS.
UNTIL A FEW YEARS AGO, I DID NOT TO ANY TAKE PART IN MY PHOTOS AS IF I WANTED TO PROTEC THEM.
IN 2017 SOMETHING CHANGEDAND I DECIDED TO START TELLING OTHERS WHAT I SAW, WHAT I FELT.
I HOPE THROUGH MY PHOTOS TO BE ABLE TO CONVEY THE INTENSITY OF EMOTIONS THAT THE PEOPLE I MET ALONG MY JOURNEYS PASSED ON TO ME.
