They also capture the emotions, the mood, the essence of their subjects. De Giovanni’s photographs convey a sense of tranquility, peace and contentment that makes viewing them an exceptionally pleasing and joyful experience. Though she professes a disregard for the classical rules of lighting and composition, De Giovanni’s images possess the balance and harmony for which so many visual artists strive, a remarkable visual cohesion that enthralls and transports the viewer. “I want people to start noticing more of their environment,” De Giovanni exclaims, barely able to contain her delight, “because it really is just gorgeous.” –Eryc Eyl
