Maria Sicolo Photographer

I’m Maria Sicolo, and in Cusano I create professional portraits designed for those who want to convey authority and personality. I work as a portrait photographer with an approach that blends the aesthetic sensitivity honed in fashion with the practicality required for corporate imagery: the goal is always the same — to show your best side in an authentic and strategic way. My vision starts from a careful stylistic research: each portrait is built around your story and the intended use of the image — corporate photo, LinkedIn, CV or personal brand portrait. With experience on fashion projects and contributions to publications such as Vogue Italia, I bring a cinematic aesthetic and meticulous lighting to portraiture that enhance the eyes, expression and the details that matter for how your professional profile is perceived. How I work: we begin with concept and preparation (a brief on tone, suggested styling and the session mood). During the shoot I create a relaxed, collaborative atmosphere to capture natural, convincing expressions, using lighting and compositions tailored to you. When needed, I arrange studio set-ups or select discreet, professional locations outdoors. After the session I personally oversee post-production — color correction and skin retouching — to deliver images ready for web or print, always respecting the subject’s authenticity. My method is designed for professionals, managers, influencers and anyone who needs a portrait that functions as a communication tool. Although I specialize in portrait photography, I bring consolidated skills from commercial, fashion and videomaking work that enrich the final result with an integrated vision of visual communication. If you’re looking in Cusano for a professional, carefully crafted and bespoke image, we can define together the ideal path for your portrait.
