Vineyard at Montresor near Verona, Northern Italy

Just returned from a short film project in Verona working for Club Individual. I was given a tour of the historic Montresor vineyard by Eduardo Montresor - In 37C heat! This is Antonio and his wife who live in the original Montresor house which dates back to 1492, Antonio is 82 and continues to manage the grapes on the main estate - he prepared home made salami with fresh baked bread. Thanks to everyone for their hospitality and to Eduardo for giving me a fascinating insight into his family history and the traditional processes of Montresor wine making.

We shot the new Net-A-Porter headquarters in Manhattan for Studiofibre.

The shoot of the interior was commissioned by Studiofibre and is featured on Designboom. We used the Canon tilt and shift 17mm f/4L for the straight on general views to keep the perspective under control. The lens is pure joy.
