Welcome to mariorimatiphotojournalism
At mariorimatiphotojournalism I specialize in capturing the essence of every moment. From the solemnity of Vatican events to the vibrant energy of concerts I believe that my photography garners the spirit of Rome.
The book "Silent Cities"? It contains 15 major international cities during the terrible April, 2020 world lockdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The book is 365 pages long and the only Italian city is Rome, which I went out to photograph 13 times (and a big "grazie" to both Jeffrey and Julie Loria for having given me the opportunity to work on such a unique project!).
And the letter here below? We had hand-delivered a copy of the book to the Quirinale Presidential Palace in Rome and for the kind attention of Italy's president, Sergio Mattarella. Unlike someone across the Atlantic, President Mattarella, like him or not, from practically day 1 of the pandemic he wore a mask and was in his own way a symbol and a "guiding light" for millions of Italians, and no doubt also those live abroad.

Diciamo che sono specializzato nel catturare l'essenza di ogni momento. Dalla solennità degli eventi in Vaticano all'energia non-stop dei concerti credo, e anche spero, che la mia fotografia catturi lo spirito di Roma.
Il libro "Silent Cities"? Contiene 15 grandi città internazionali durante il terribile lockdown ad aprile, 2020 dovuto alla pandemia (Covid-19). Il libro è di 365 pagine e l'unica città italiana è Roma, che sono uscito a fotografarla per ben 13 volte (e un grande "grazie" a Jeffrey e Julie Loria per avermi dato l'opportunità di lavorare ad un progetto così unico!).
E la lettera qui sotto? Avevamo consegnato a mano una copia del libro al Quirinale e alla cortese attenzione del Presidente della Repubblica, Sergio Mattarella. A differenza di qualcuno dall'altra parte dell'Atlantico, il Presidente Mattarella, che piaccia o no, praticamente dal primo giorno della pandemia indosso’ la mascherina ed è stato, a suo modo, un simbolo e anche un "faro" per milioni di italiani e senza dubbio anche per quelli che vivono all'estero.
Services
I cover ALL kinds of events, from Pope Francis to Italy's President Sergio Mattarella to our Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to art exhibits, sporting events and LOTS of concerts (515 of them so far in 5 different countries and in 68 cities and towns).
And I don't just take pictures but I write-up on the events in English and for an international audience (I first started photography in Winnipeg; Canada--I was born there--in 1974). I can also do walk-about photo tours of the Eternal City (I've got about 120 books on Rome so I think I know it rather well, especially after nearly 36 years that I've been living in the Eternal City).
