Italian photographer Luca Boschi knows his way around photography and lighting. And while that sounds like something one might expect from a professional photographer, the lighting expert has brought his level of expertise to a whole new level. Known as “The Light Architect,” Luca can exquisitely manipulate lighting on set.
Experts have looked at Luca’s photos and likened it to photo manipulated shots. But make no mistake. The Light Architect does all his lighting techniques with very little to no manipulation at all. Luca is the founder of the technique known as “shadow weaving.” The style boasts an output that bends the light over models to make it seem like the masterful artist weaves his subject around a light ray. The technique is a secret until today. No other photographer has mimicked the design. As a result, many people have followed the photographer, whether they’re hobbyists or professionals. Luca Boschi is a living source of creative pegs worth emulating.
The Italian photographer and lighting expert has built a reliable brand for himself. Luca can capture some of the most stunning photos. His specialty is around street photography and studio glamour shots. Luca has directed many historical reenactments. This exposure is what cultivated in the artist a love for experimental art. As a creator, he is curious and hungry for innovation. And those characteristics emanate from his unique works of art captured through stills.
Luca Boschi started doing photography at the age of 25. He would later catch the attention of some of the largest local publications. Pretty soon, news outlets were offering to purchase Luca’s photos. That’s when Luca started doing photography as a profession, growing immensely into one of the country’s top freelance photographers for media companies.
Luca’s specific niche for photography has always been in shooting directed glam shots. Even as a photojournalist, he would go on fun shoots with friends as models on the city’s streets. His craft would mature even more when he started to discover how to use both natural and artificial light around human subjects masterfully.
Luca Boschi pays maniacal attention to particulars. That’s why he loves the idea of playing with light — because it brings out the details. “In each photoshoot and set, I look at every detail because I think the lights can do more than a Photoshop retouch,” shares Luca Boschi. “So I bend the light of my flashes over the body or the object I’m working on.”
In 2013, Luca created his studio and provided some of the best glamour and fashion photography services professionally. Five years after opening his studio, Luca got the idea of creating his brand name “The Light Architect,” which he got from an Italian social media influencer and a good friend called Dellimellow. Today, Luca has over 20,000 followers on Instagram.
Luca Boschi has expanded his network and influence in photography circles. His photos have appeared on Fashionably Male, one of the leading magazines for male modeling and fashion. Luca isn’t afraid to speak his mind on and off the set. His authenticity is what makes him a great professional. Thinking forward, he looks to grow his professional network more and develop his craft, hoping to one day become an internationally acclaimed photographer.
