About Me

Portrait of Augusto Schillaci

A Life in Images

I am a filmmaker and photographer with a lifelong fascination for visual storytelling, light, and the relationship between images and memory.

After decades working in animation and filmmaking, photography has become another way for me to explore the world—one frame at a time.

My work is rooted in traditional film photography, from the moment of exposure to the process of developing negatives and creating prints in the darkroom.

Working with film encourages me to slow down, observe more carefully, and become more deliberate about each photograph.

My Approach

The Process Matters

I find as much satisfaction in the craft of developing and printing an image as I do in capturing it.

The darkroom is an essential part of my photographic practice, where the image continues to evolve through light, chemistry, and interpretation.
