Fabio Nosotti Photographer

Layout made by mad_matt I'm a Fashion & Music photographer. Well, here is a little story of myself......I started out in the mid-Seventies, contributing as a journalist to the magazine Suono Hi-Fi Stereo; at the same time I started to taking pictures of everything that I saw around me: people, things and....whatever. I took my first picture ever at a Rolling Stones show, my second one at a Jethro Tull show: not bad, as beginnings go, right? In 1980 I was one of the founding members of the magazines Il Mucchio Selvaggio. Later, Il Buscadero, and I also started, with my friend Paolo Carù, my record label, the Wild Bunch Records, for which i executive produced 2 lp's that were printed on my label in a limited edition of 3000 copies each. The 1st was "Too Close For Comfort" by Terry & The Pirates, the 2nd "Southern California Drive" by Chris Darrow (images)In the following years I was a regular contributor as a journalist & photographer to various magazines: Ciao 2001, Tutti Frutti, Rockerilla, Tutto Musica & Hi-Fi. I also worked for Videomusic, the first Italian music TV. Then I worked for Italian Vogue for seven years and my images were published on various fashion and music magazines all over the world: Donna, Amica, 100 Cose, Hard Rock, Top Girl, Rock Show, Rock 'n' Folk were some of them. At that point I became photo editor of the Italian Esquire, I made some photographic books, and my first photo exhibition in 1987. After that I made many other exhibitions, a couple for charity, including one with Amnesty International. In 30 years of shooting, I also created around 2000 albums, singles and cd covers for many top international artists and many advertising campaigns for well known trademarks. My images have also been used by many musicians and artists for their merchandising and web sites. I have worked in all the major cities around the globe, and I lived in Milano, Los Angeles, New York and Austin. Well, what can I add ? That I had a lot of fun in my life, and I still do. I made many friends, and I really want to thank all the wonderful people I met and worked with, and made all this possible.........well, keep on rockin' my friends..
