gabriele donati video e fotografia pubblicitaria

I’m Gabriele Donati, a photographer and director with a particular affinity for portraiture. Here in Castiglione delle Stiviere I create images that go straight to the essence of the person. My photography aims at “removing” — I eliminate everything that distracts in order to leave the face, the gaze and the personal story that everyone carries. This approach comes from my cinematic background and long studio practice: technique at the service of storytelling, never the other way around. I consider myself a professional portrait specialist. I work with private clients and professionals who need a LinkedIn photo, a portrait for their CV, or corporate images that communicate authority without artifice. My goal is to create authentic portraits — not forced poses, but honest moments that reveal who you are. The result is measured, clean and recognisable visual communication. In corporate and business portraits I favour a sober style that highlights personality and role while maintaining coherence with the company’s image and brand identity. My method is simple and respectful: I start with a consultation to understand your objective, set up the right atmosphere (in studio or on location) and guide the session with discretion. Often there’s no need for many words: portraits are born from observation and trust. I prefer natural light or minimal sets that underline character without overshadowing it, and I use controlled technical lighting when required to support the concept. After the session I carefully select and edit the images to preserve naturalness and communicative strength, delivering high-resolution retouched files ready for web and print. I can also advise on wardrobe, styling and framing to ensure visual consistency. For clients who need integrated content, I also produce video services and complementary multimedia materials: short presentation clips or corporate videos that accompany and amplify the portrait. I collaborate on advertising projects when it’s necessary to build a campaign around a professional image or to develop coordinated visual assets.
