Maddalena

Yesterday I went to Filanda Pregiata for a two-hour photo session with Maddalena, a 25-year-old model based in Milan who, as I found out, occasionally rents the rooms at Filanda Pregiata herself.

Maddalena is very young, but her posing experience, refined photographic taste, and ability to read the light are undeniable strengths. On top of that, she’s an absolute pleasure to work with—sunny, professional, and genuinely hardworking.

Have you ever done a photoshoot with models who yawn out of boredom because they’d rather be somewhere else? Well, this was the exact opposite. Maddalena truly cares about her work. She’s curious to review the shots as we go and uses them to refine her poses and suggest new ideas. Personally, I had a great experience working with her and I can’t wait for her to be back around here.

If you are interested to work with her, you can find it on Instagram here.
