About Ally
as Gino sees her
Ally is a Renaissance woman who feels beauty with all her senses.
Curiosity and life experience led her to food, where she discovered photography as a language of emotion and connection.
With a PhD in law and a culinary degree from a Michelin-starred restaurant in Milan, she left a successful career in tax law to pursue her need to tell visual stories.
Ally brings a human and sensory perspective to every project, conveying the culture, meaning, and emotion that surround food and places.
Her clients include international brands, boutique publishers, exclusive hospitality & lifestyle destinations, and creative studios. Her work has appeared in Monocle, Food52, and more.
She lives and works between Milan and New York City.

Ally loves food. Gino sees people.
Together, we share an intuitive and elegant sight, crafting high-end visuals with unmistakable style.
They first met over twenty years ago at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, in front of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus.
He—bold and smooth, as he tends to be—with that rare ability to read people at a glance, turned to her and asked: “Did you just step out of the painting?”
She laughed—loudly, as she tends to do—and something clicked.
What followed was an impromptu tour through the museum’s halls, a coffee shared between strangers who somehow weren’t, and a walk to the train station. At the platform, as she said goodbye, he gently corrected her: “If you want to see someone again, you don’t say goodbye. You say ciao. See you later.”
Since then, that see you later has stretched across years, countries, and countless conversations, into a deep, steady friendship that has now become a partnership to pair their sensibilities and create lasting imagery.
They come from different worlds and backgrounds, but speak a common language: storytelling through light, intimacy, and presence.
Together, they bring complementary perspectives and a shared pursuit of beauty to every project they take on.
Two voices, one vision, and a unique instinct for stories people can feel.
Gino is based in NYC, Ally in Milan, but depending on the project, they work together or individually, in Milan, in NYC, remotely, or wherever stories and beauty are waiting to be framed.
