About Us
We are creative - We are different - We are a brand
Born on July 24, 1983, in Palermo, Italy, Ivan Schirmenti took up photography at the age of 12, following in his father’s footsteps.
He was awarded his first prize in 2008, “Best Wedding Photographer”, thanks to his passion and to the experience acquired over the years. This prize was followed by a number of awards in both Italian and International contexts, for which his continuing need for innovation has played a key role
In 2019 he joined the Italy Team for the World Photography Championships (WPC).
In his photographies are all the feelings he captures: elegance, spontaneity, love, joy. Moved by his passion for weddings, Ivan has shot in Australia, Belgium, Germany and US, and became Master of Professional Photography in 2016.
Currently he is based in Palermo, although branch offices have been opened recently in Trapani, Italy (2010), and Frankfurt, Germany (2017).
