I am Alessandro Della Savia, a professional photographer based in Milan and working internationally since 2008. Throughout my career I have collaborated with companies, executives, entrepreneurs, professionals, agencies and private clients, developing a strong specialization in professional portraits, corporate photography, personal branding, event reportage, and architecture and interior photography.
My work combines technical expertise, attention to light and composition, and a deep understanding of communication, creating images that are not only visually refined but also effective in representing people, companies and spaces.
A significant part of my work is dedicated to professional portrait photography for managers, entrepreneurs, C-level executives, business professionals and creatives. I create portraits for LinkedIn profiles, corporate websites, editorial publications and personal branding projects, designing each session according to the client’s identity, communication goals and intended use of the images.
Alongside portrait photography, I work extensively with companies, agencies and organizations, producing corporate photography, event reportage, conference coverage and visual communication projects. Over the years I have worked with international companies and organizations including Ferrero, BMW, UniCredit, Latham & Watkins, Grant Thornton, Linklaters, Oracle, Statkraft, Mapei, L’Oréal, Gilead, De’Longhi, Pandora, Liebherr, Airbnb, Cisco and Salesforce, delivering photographic productions tailored to different industries and communication needs.
My professional journey began working alongside renowned architecture and interior photographers in Milan, an experience that shaped my visual approach and strengthened my understanding of light, perspective and composition. Architecture and interior photography remain an important part of my activity, allowing me to collaborate with architects, interior designers, companies, hotels and real estate professionals to create images that enhance spaces and communicate their identity.
Alongside my photographic work, I also teach photography through workshops and one-to-one courses, sharing the experience developed through years of professional practice. For me, photography is not only a profession but also a way of observing, interpreting and communicating. Every project, whether a portrait, a corporate assignment, an event or an architectural space, is an opportunity to create images that are authentic, elegant and meaningful, capable of conveying identity, professionalism and value over time.
Alessandro Della Savia
Photographer and Photography Enthusiast
From a young age, I breathed the language of photography, feeling at home among images. After university, I decided to give voice to my sensitivity and aesthetic through the visual arts. Today, I have opened my own photographic studio in Milan, where I interprets professional photography, capturing emotions that last forever.
I say of himself: “Photography is an urgency for me, it’s my inner drive towards the search for a world of value. When I take pictures, my focus is on the people in front of the lens: what are they feeling in that moment? How can I translate their inner world into an image? In my relationship with my clients, my feeling is that we are together in the same story, sharing a part of life’s journey, of which I have the honor of being the witness through my shots.”
Some questions for the photographer
The initial questions to get oriented
Since 2008, I have been a passionate photographer and proud owner of a photography studio in Milan. I want to share some thoughts about my journey as a photographer and teacher. Photography is an integral part of my life, allowing me to express creativity and connect with the world. Each photograph tells a story, conveying emotions, experiences, and memories. Teaching photography enables me to share my passion and knowledge with aspiring photographers, helping them develop skills and unleash creativity. I am motivated to capture authentic moments, preserving fleeting instants that would otherwise be lost. Photography has the power to transport us back in time, evoking emotions and memories. I am grateful for opportunities and the amazing people I’ve encountered. Photography is a lifelong passion, a way to express myself, connect with others, and make a meaningful impact.
The Work of a Photographer
What does photography mean to you? To me, it means creating value through my shots, being a witness to an event or reader of a portrait. It means interpreting the world, to remember it and enhance it. We must always remember the depth and contribution that we put into what we do.
Photography is a visually stunning and sensitive art form. A single photograph can convey more than a film or a book can: it’s a language for communicating emotions and sensations. Just like a dancer, musician, or writer creates culture through their works, for me, photography is a means to artistically express my sensitivity.
Being able to translate into an image what was previously only present in my mind before taking the shot. And then, the satisfaction of the clients: knowing that I have been able to reconcile my sensitivity with their expectations is always a great achievement for me.
My first time in a darkroom was when I was twelve years old. Since then, I have always used the visual language to tell and capture my experiences. Today, after decades, my perception of photography and my relationship with it is still fresh and exciting.
Of all the means of expression, photography is the only one that fixes a precise moment in time.
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Portrait Photography
This question brings to mind a quote by Pascal: “What vanity painting is, attracting admiration because of the resemblance of things of which we do not admire the originals.” If it is true that photography captures and represents an imprint of reality, in front of a portrait, we encounter a new person, similar yet unknown. In one word, unique. This new object trouvé is generated by the photographer, not the camera. Therefore, only the author can make their works unique.
The creation of a portrait is a performance where we focus our photographic vision, empathy, and affection for the subject (if we gain their trust), and the desire to create something out of nothing. It requires freedom of thought and interaction. Often, no more than 5 minutes are needed, but the intensity of those few moments can be incredibly high.
Having a broad photographic knowledge allows us to navigate without getting lost, but we should never suppress the sense of wonder that the sights before us can bring every day. We should have the desire to learn more and never take anything for granted: that’s how confidence is built, knowing that the right moment will always come.

Teaching Potography
If you want to become a photographer, you must first understand what it means to you, what role you have and how dedicated you are to photography. Do you want to improve your skills, take photos for fun, and share them online? Or do you want to make photography your profession and exhibit your work in museums and galleries? Always remember the depth and contribution you are putting into what you do.
There are plenty of ways to learn. It depends on how much time you have available: most people rely on online videos for technical skills, but real learning, knowledge, and confidence are gained by working alongside professional photographers, attending courses and workshops, to engage and see firsthand how it’s done.
You need to have a thorough understanding and knowledge of the tool you are using, but just like with a pair of skis or a motorcycle, technique is not the fun part but rather a means to have even more fun, capturing photos in every lighting condition and in places where nobody has ever thought of taking a photo before.

Emotions, gestures and gazes captured in weddings and exclusive events, of which I have been an attentive witness, are the protagonists of my personal portfolio. I have a fresh and elegant style and always aim to create shots that enhance the moments and emotions portrayed.
