Family isn't always a matter of blood
From 6 to 18 I've probably spent more time in Chiara's house than in mine.
Almost every afternoon I'd hang out at her place and quite often I'd stay for dinner.
Her mum has always been the opposite of mine and I feel like I've been growing up with two mums. While I learnt from mine to be strong and stubborn, to work hard, to be independent, I had Valeria to show me how to be soft and share my emotions.
While my family has always been something between the flying circus and a freak show, Chiara's family was the perfect example of what you'd find looking for "family" in the dictionary.
There was sisterhood, there, while at home I'd spend most of the time finding new ways of fighting my brother.
Since I owe a lot to chiara's parents (the apartment we're staying in right now is Chiara's aunt's, for example), and since she wouldn't let me buy stuff for her because "we're young and we need to keep the money", she agreed on having her picture taken with Chiara and Anna (the uber-beautiful sister).
So a couple of days ago they stormed in my studio during a short lunch break just to snap some shots in a super-hurry and before I knew what was happening we were done.
No hair and makeup, no complicated setup.
I love how beautiful they all are, in different ways.
Anna's always been the rebel. she's the youngest one and she'll probably take over the world.
Valeria is just sweetness and beauty condensed in one woman, Chiara is glowing (and her belly is starting to show!)
