Archaeological Photography & Video

Documentaries on archaeology offer a sensitive yet down-to-earth look at the past, useful to scholars and the general public alike. My approach aims to tell the big picture of lost civilizations, focusing on specific sites to understand their material aspects. Artifacts collected from the earth become silent witnesses to the everyday stories of those who created, used, lost, or destroyed them, sometimes in faraway places.

Gathering the clues and giving them a voice again are the archaeologists, who show their work in the field, revealing the value of their own dedication to finding and preserving the past. Their intimate and very personal contact with the millennia-old artifacts creates a continuity of exchanging glances across time with those who then guarded them on that same land. “Death is but the victory of time. To artificially fix the carnal appearances of being is to wrest it from the flow of duration: to lead it back to life” (Bazin, 1990).

The narrator's words do not flood the scene, but let the people and objects speak, unobtrusively explaining what they cannot show, sometimes with the help of archival images or simple reconstructions, placing historical texts and myths alongside the concrete subject matter.

The attempt to grasp and preserve life in its instantaneous fragility, handing down History, unites archaeological research with the camera, which stands beside it with curiosity and respect, ready to grasp the wonder and humanity, immortalized in the filmic image, introducing the viewer on tiptoe into this delicate human relationship.

Through storytelling, punctuated by the dialogue between gazes across time, archaeological documentaries allow us to create a bridge between past and present that enriches our understanding of human history, forgotten for centuries, giving humanity a firmer foundation on which to build its own certainties.

Let me breathe life into your archaeological project:

  • Meticulous Documentation: My keen eye captures every detail of your excavation - from the vastness of a site to the intricate markings on an artifact. You'll receive high-resolution images that serve as a permanent record of your discoveries.
  • Storytelling Through Visuals: I go beyond mere documentation. By using light, composition, and perspective, I craft images that tell the story of your project. These visuals will not only inform but also evoke emotions, ignite curiosity, and draw viewers deeper into the fascinating world of your archaeological discoveries.
  • Technical Proficiency: I'm not just passionate about archaeology, I'm also a skilled photographer with over 20 years of experience. I utilize advanced techniques like photogrammetry and multispectral imaging to capture the full picture, ensuring your project is documented with cutting-edge methods.
  • Compelling Video Narratives: Bring your archaeological project to life with captivating video productions. I can create documentaries, site tours, object analyses, and more, using my filmmaking expertise to showcase your findings in an engaging and informative way. Drone photography/videography is also available.
