David Bastianoni Studio was born from four generations of visionaries who turned photography into an art of memory. For almost a century, light has been our language: a way of seeing, feeling, and preserving what matters. It began with David’s great-grandfather, who first understood the power of an image to honor time itself. His grandfather captured the quiet poetry of Tuscany, his father and uncle brought elegance into fashion photography, teaching that beauty is never imposed, only revealed. When David inherited this legacy, he gave it a contemporary soul: merging the discipline of fashion with the authenticity of documentary storytelling. What emerged was a new language: refined, emotional, timeless. Today, the studio is a collective of artists led by David’s vision. We work with presence, not noise; with intuition, not formulas. Across continents and cultures, we create images that endure, not as memories of a day, but as fragments of life shaped by light and soul.
Where Individual Artistry Becomes Collective Poetry
We are five artists united by one purpose: to translate emotion into imagery that endures. Each voice is distinct, yet together we move with a single rhythm: intuitive, precise, and quietly powerful. Ours is a shared pursuit of beauty, where photography becomes collaboration, and every wedding transforms into a narrative shaped by light, elegance, and truth. What we create is not simply seen; it is felt, remembered, and timeless.
David
David approaches every celebration with quiet intention and a refined sense of presence. His eye, shaped by years in fashion and guided by a documentarian’s truth, captures beauty in its most natural form. Beyond his artistry, David’s warmth and instinct for connection define his way of working. He believes that sometimes a smile is the strongest form of trust: the bridge that turns presence into intimacy, and photography into a shared experience. He works with the precision of an artist and the awareness that every image carries the weight of memory. His compositions are deliberate yet effortless, where light, form, and emotion align into something timeless. Recognized internationally and featured in publications such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and Elle, David’s truest reward lies beyond the pages. For him, photography is not about perfection, but permanence: creating images that endure as modern heirlooms, authentic and eternal.

The Factory
Where heritage meets creative soul.
Since 1932, these walls have witnessed the evolution of vision — from David’s grandfather’s first atelier to today’s contemporary studio in the heart of Tuscany. Two hundred square meters where history and creativity coexist, where tradition meets design, and where every idea begins its journey.
Inspired by Warhol’s original Factory, our space is more than a studio. It’s a living atelier: a place for creation, dialogue, and artistry. Here we photograph, design, curate, and shape each project with the precision and warmth that define our work.
From the first meeting to the final album, The Factory is where everything comes to life. It’s a space built for collaboration and reflection, where light becomes language and where every story finds its form.
Step inside, and become part of the story we're writing together.
