About

Behind inthestories is Marco Basutto, a photographer and visual artist who finds in photography his language to explore human connection.

Specializing in portraiture, couple and wedding photography, Marco chose as his creative home the city that best embodies poetry and suspended time: Venice.

Every frame stems from a precise artistic intent. Through the use of vintage lenses, wide-open apertures and a continuous search for natural light, reality is stripped of the superfluous: intentional blur and atmospheric details capture the grace of a pure, unrepeatable emotion.

His quest aims to create imperfect, intimate and timeless images - authentic keepers of your story.

FAQ

My goal isn't simply to document or have you pose, but to capture the atmosphere and genuine emotions you will experience. Through the use of natural light, vintage lenses shot wide open and a constant focus on movement, the result is not a catalog of static photos but an intimate and cinematic visual story.

The beauty of my approach lies in the fact that you won't feel like you're acting. I blend in discreetly, giving you small prompts only when the light calls for it, but the priority will always be making you feel at ease so that your spontaneity emerges effortlessly.

Venice is my creative home and an endless source of inspiration, but I love to travel to tell stories wherever they unfold.

I personally select and curate every single shot to ensure narrative and color consistency. You will receive a high-resolution gallery from which you can download images and order prints or fine art albums. Delivery times for the gallery are usually 1 to 2 weeks, depending on the time of year.

I mostly work independently, which allows me to move naturally and create a more intimate connection. However, for larger or more complex events, I collaborate with a trusted second photographer. We work together to ensure every perspective and angle is covered while maintaining the exact same artistic vision.
