My name is Stefano Borghi ( AKA Steve Villages) a visual story teller, editorial, portrait,fashion, wedding photographer and video maker @ myitalianweddingphotos.com and web designer ( here @ motionminded.com)
I am based in Italy, Yet I am a keen explorer of the world and am flexible to travel. I was blessed to grow up in Florence, constantly surrounded by the beauty of Tuscany’s cultural treasures,imaginary places and amazing landscapes, which continually inspired me.
As a teenager, I was given my first camera, and with it the desire to create came on its own. I fell in love with the photographic poetry of the Russian director Andrej Arsen’evič Tarkovskij and I started to spend most of my free time exploring Tuscany, in search of the magic of the locations admired in his film Nostalghia,doing a few small editorial gigs.
I left Tuscany and traveled endlessly around the five continents, where I had the privilege to capture religious ceremonies of varying cultures, in addition to stunning landscapes, people and celebratory occasions.
I spent years constantly experimenting and studying photography while traveling through Europe, Russia, Asia, Australia and America.
I remain inspired delving into photography in its multidisciplinary facets, I am passionate about clean images with little artificial enhancements yet filled with spontaneity.
I approach each event, festivity or ceremonial gathering with a personal touch of special moments, thereby expressing my creativity and simultaneously capture moments of a lifetime. So it’s no surprise, that YOUR EVENT as a whole is the focus of my work. YOU and YOUR GUESTS, the action, the mood of the day are what I strive to capture in a fresh, natural and elegant way.

More about me:
Photography was a truly wonderful, happy accident for me, since I assume that the path from technology to traveler to photographer is a less traveled path. But ever since I got my hands on my first camera at the age of fourteen, I knew it is what I was meant to do.
While I hope to leave behind a comprehensive, moving and powerful body of work, ultimately, I am measuring my path through the relationships formed with designers, clothing lines, agencies and models that I see along the way. Because in the end, it’s all about the journey, (…exploring is a virtue, tourism is a deadly sin…Bruce Chatwin), a journey that also included traditional stops: formal education in photography and video post-production.
