I'm Sacha Zanin, a fashion and portrait photographer based in Milan, Italy.

My interest in visual storytelling started long before I began working professionally as a photographer. With a background in CGI and Visual Effects from IED Milan, I developed a strong appreciation for composition, lighting and the creative process behind an image. Over time, photography became the medium through which I could bring these interests together and develop my own visual approach.

Today, my work focuses primarily on fashion photography, from editorial shoots and model portfolios to lookbooks and commercial campaigns.

What I enjoy most about fashion photography is the opportunity to explore different aesthetics, personalities and creative directions. Every project brings something new, whether it's working with natural light on location, building a specific atmosphere in the studio or experimenting with styling and composition.

I don't believe every photograph needs to follow the same formula. I like adapting my approach to the people, clothing and ideas in front of me, while maintaining a strong attention to detail and the overall visual impact of the image.

Throughout my work, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with fashion brands, modeling agencies and creative teams.

Alongside commissioned assignments, I continue to develop personal projects and editorial shoots, giving myself the freedom to experiment, refine my style and explore new ideas.

For me, photography is about more than creating a technically good image. It's about finding the right balance between light, composition, atmosphere and personality to create something worth looking at.
