Pierpaolo Perri

Sorrento, Italy

I am passionate about things I can get lost in. I used to be a musician. I started playing the piano since I was a 10 year old kid and I remember my dad taking pictures of us with his Ricoh camera at that time. I start using my dad's camera in the same period Unlike many other photographer I have to be really honest! I don't like to travel a lot. I mean I don't really like infinite queues at airports, I don't like to stay packed in small spaces and I don't like to do things with hurry. In general I don't like all the big transportation. But I really enjoy that peculiar local transportation as the rental scooters in Pantelleria or riding donkeys in Santorini (that by the way nowadays is prohibited and I totally agree with that), the ferries in Lofoten Island in Norway or also taxi boat in Positano. I found my balance thanks to my work and now I'm really aware of who I am and what I can give to the people I meet along my way. I am a father, I get emotional when I see newborns. I get chills when I listen to someone who sings with passion. I loose myself when I take pictures.
