After est. 3 years of trying to arrange a shoot around external commitments and our respective schedules, I am delighted to say that me and Alberto have collaborated - definitely worth the wait! He is an excellent communicator, both in pre-shoot messages and throughout, checking in periodically and the conversation flowed with humour and friendliness. He is diligent, attentive to detail and professional with his work; rigging and photography both, two art forms woven into one. I am eagerly looking forward to seeing what results from our shoot, and am more eagerly anticipating collaborating with him in the future. Exceptionally highly recommended.

I have been working with Alberto for a number of years now, and have no hesitation in recommending him to any model, or photographers looking to capture beautiful ropework.

He is a fantastic rigger, is very clear and meticulous in his communication and negotiation, and has a stunning studio space to work in. As a photographer his style is very striking, and his lighting never fails to impress. I'm already looking forward to our next shoot!

I had a lovely afternoon shooting with Alberto recently. He's a great rigger, with a laidback and respectful approach, and I felt safe and comfortable throughout. His studio is also a really cool space, I love the ambiance :)

I would definitely recommend Alberto and I hope to work with him again!

I’ve worked with Alberto on a number of shoots and the man is a rope genius - amazing rigging skills and performer. Professional, meticulous and relaxed, made all the shoots exceptionally enjoyable experiences allowing me to create some truly amazing images in the process.

Very much hoping to collaborate again in the future. Highly recommended.

Alberto is fantastic with rope work. He was clear and direct as to health and safety, made sure I was comfortable at all times. I found the whole experience very zen and chill, which is partly due to the fact that you knew you were in good hands.

Recommended 100% if you are looking for a respectful and mutual rope shoot.

Had a small test shot and tried out ropes to get used to suspension and rope binding today with Alberto- this man is truly an outstanding artist in what he does not only in the beautiful handmade ropes, suspension ties etc but also from just the test shots we did today! He was also friendly and extremely professional in what he did; going over health and safety so I completely understood! :)

Really looking forward to a full collaboration soon!

Thanks :D

Alberto is a talented, meticulous and professional rigger and photographer. Pre-shoot communication was very good and I felt very looked after during the rigging and photos. It was a brilliant experience that I would definitely recommend and I hope to collaborate again in the future.
