Hi, I’m Paolo Ciccone, an Italian-born portrait photographer, now living in Charleston, SC.
When someone is born in Italy, they cannot help but be influenced by the centuries-old traditions of fashion, beauty, and the importance of image. It has had a significant impact on me and my approach to art, culture, and life.
Since the age of 15, I have been creating photographs, back when it meant developing negatives! My father was my mentor and he taught me the importance of composition, lighting, and capturing the true essence of my subject.
It all starts with taking the time to get to know you and understand what is important to you, and what kind of portraits will put a smile on your face.
The most important artwork that you can have in your home is a family portrait. It becomes the family heirloom that you enjoy today and is passed on to the generations to come.
I make every family portrait as a timeless piece of art that gives your family the gift of legacy. Call me today and start building your family heirloom.
