Name:<\/strong> S<\/a>ilvia<\/a>
Location: <\/strong>Amsterdam
Equipment:<\/strong> Canon Camera 6D, 35mm 1.4, 85mm 1.4 and 24-105mm<\/p>\n

How long have you lived in your city?<\/strong>
1 year<\/p>\n

How did you come to be a photographer? Tell us a little about your background.<\/strong>
I\u2019ve been taking photos ever since I was little, first with my mum\u2019s camera. After taking a lot of blurry photos, she decided to get me one to practice with and it was pure love. I knew that photography was my passion, but it took me a while to make photography my job. <\/p>\n

Since I\u2019ve decided to make my dreams a reality, so many great things happened! I live in a city that I adore (I\u2019m originally from Venice, but now live in Amsterdam), I get to meet people from all over the world and I get to travel the world, too! It can be pretty risky when you start, but with devotion and persistence I believe you can get anywhere.<\/p>\n

\"\"

How would you describe your personal photography style?<\/strong>
I think of myself as a storyteller and documentary photographer, capturing what\u2019s happening in the moment. I always focus on light and lines and I like to take my time and wait for the perfect shot. When it comes to portrait photography, it\u2019s all about capturing the moments and emotion between people.<\/p>\n

Where do you find your creative inspiration?<\/strong>
In Amsterdam, everything inspires me \u2013 biking along canals at sunrise when the city is empty and at sunset when the sky is burning up. Amsterdam sunsets are so beautiful. I find inspiration in a cup of coffee, a chat with my friends, in the books I read and even strangers that I meet. <\/p>\n

What album is on repeat when you\u2019re editing photos?<\/strong>
It changes all the time! At the moment I\u2019m obsessed with the Lumineers, indie music and sometimes (I have to admit), I like to play the music I listened to as a teenager \u2013 it cheers me up.<\/p>\n

What are you currently reading?<\/strong>
I\u2019m reading a book in Italian, \u201cPrometto di Sbagliare\u201d by Freitas.<\/p>\n

Where is your favourite place to shoot in your city and why?<\/strong>
Anywhere I can have a rooftop view.<\/p>\n

What does a perfect day in your city look like?<\/strong>
A perfect day for me would be Saturday in the summer. I would go to my favourite market, Noordermarkt, grab a juice and sip it by the canals. Then I would walk to Vondelpark to have a picnic. It would be a simple, but perfect day in Amsterdam. <\/p>\n

Where are your favourite places in your city to get a coffee and\/or a cocktail?<\/strong>
For coffee, I love Scandinavian Embassy<\/a> and TOKI<\/a>. For a cocktail, I love the Sky Lounge<\/a> and Cafe Louis<\/a> \u2013 great atmosphere and adorable cats. <\/p>\n

Where was the last trip that you took? <\/strong>
I\u2019ve recently travelled to Asia for a month. I travelled to Singapore and Malaysia where I shot a wedding in Kuala Lumpur and I finished my trip in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t even have words to describe how amazing the experience was! I got to know so many amazing people, saw unbelievable places, ate the most weird and delicious food and made a lot of lasting memories.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\n\"\"
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

If you could live anywhere in the world for one year, where would you live and why?<\/strong>
I am an Italian living in Amsterdam and feel that I\u2019m still living my dream, but Asia is always in my heart. I would love to live in Seoul, Tokyo or Hong Kong. I go crazy for vibrant chaotic metropolises. I like to feel tiny in a city with endless options. Even if I moved, I would still love to come back to my reality of canals, bicycles and gingerbread houses.<\/p>\n

What do you most love about shooting for Flytographer? <\/strong>
I love shooting people from all over the world and learning about their life. Their attitude is alway positive and playful and what I love most is that they are as in love with the city as I am. I love seeing enthusiasm in people \u2013 it just makes me want to give them the best experience ever!<\/p>\n
