Photographer’s Beautiful Back-Facing Portraits of His Wife


Like a beautiful love letter, self-taught photographer Fabio Sabatini takes gorgeous portraits of his wife Alessandra. With her beautiful blond hair and her sparkling blue eyes, Alessandra makes for the perfect subject, which is why it comes as no surprise that Sabatini has taken over 500 photos of her.

His most stunning photos are the ones under the series titled Shoulders. Traveling the world, visiting European countries, like Greece and Spain, as well as Asian countries, like Bali and Thailand, Sabatini shoots Alessandra, not just from the front, but from behind. While at times she's gazing in awe at the historic sites or the breathtaking views before her, in others the main focus is on her long blond hair, which dramatically whips through the air in a near cinematic style. In all cases, it feels as though Sabatini is visually expressing his love for his wife, giving us a wonderful glimpse into a life he loves living.
