Alessandro Bianchetti is an international photographer and director with a background in social science and human Alessandro Bianchetti is an international photographer and director based in Perth, Western Australia, with a background in social science and human psychology.
He inherited the passion for photography from his two older brothers and started in 2005 when the oldest gave him his first camera.
Alessandro considers himself lucky as he worked alongside a friend Paolo Spinoni who is a professional photographer. Thanks to him, he got kicked into the photography industry field early in his career. As far as he remembers, he had the opportunity to start shooting sports teams, events, and a few local newspaper services just after completing his first camera course in 2007.
Since landing in Australia in 2012, Alessandro has extended his skills to artists' performances and art galleries. Over the last decade, he documented exhibitions, shows, and opening nights for Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, Curtin University, Seva & Frangos, Sacred India art gallery, and many others.
Alessandro also collaborated with visual artist David Brophy on the work “one and three”, which was exhibited as a finalist in the 2014 Victoria Park Art Awards. In addition, in 2015, he won the City of Subiaco's photographic award.
In 2017 Alessandro founded a commercial photographic business called Luce Photography.
Alessandro is also a qualified Australian photographer, and he received a distinction as the best student from North Metropolitan TAFE.
Alessandro creates rather than takes images by mixing real people and locations.
He carefully arranges his scenes using detailed lighting and framing and includes both cinematic documentary and staged photography; his series of theatrical large scale colour prints are carefully constructed, straddling reality and fiction, leaving the spectators wondering what is truly happening within the scenes; his photographs indicate rather than elucidates a complete story. Alessandro’s artworks are influenced by popular culture, history, film, television, literature, and his childhood memories and personal experiences.
