Shoot in the Alps
Photo & Film Production and Location Service
Shoot in The Alps is a film and photo facilitating company operating in the European Alps; France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria and Slovenia as a single geographic entity. The company handles everything from full service, location scouting, casting of sports models, stuntmen, mountain safety experts and helicopters - without forgetting the warm cups of Espresso, even at 3500 metres!
A glacier in France might not be as accessible as one in Italy, and the snow in Austria might be deeper than in Switzerland... or everything could be just the opposite. Shoot in the Alps will take you exactly where your production needs to be. Conditions changes quickly in the mountains and a detailed and updated knowledge of the territory is necessary for a successful production. This knowledge is provided by a network of professionals who live and work in the region throughout the year.
For six months a year, clients can shoot their models skiing on day one, and swimming in the sea on day two - Shoot in The Alps has access to snow 365 days a year. The company's location database incudes everything a client can think of: cities, forests, lakes, beaches, frozen icefalls, green pastures, rural villages and high altitude - but easily accessible – icy peaks, and much more. The automotive industry will find amazing roads here, and fashion photographers will enjoy the mix between modern and historical architecture of the region.
The team works with crews and suppliers from Milan, Zurich, Geneva, Innsbruck, Munich and Ljubljana, offering the best equipment and the highest level of professionalism.

Sabrina Conforti
Milan
Sabrina Conforti’s adventure in the world of photography began by attending the Italian Institute of Photography in Milan. Shot after shot, she created a unique style which has helped her to make her way in a predominantly male world.
As a former basketball player and always passionate about sports, she began to photograph athletes and entered the world of rugby in 2008. Known internationally, Sabrina worked for Adidas on Danilo Gallinari’s campaign, for an Italian tour by Jonah Lomu (former All Black), and with Javier Zanetti across a range of shoots.
She is the author of numerous series published in Sportweek and has been following the Italian National Rugby Team for 10 years. Sabrina has also been the official photographer of the Crédit Agricole Italia Group for four years. Her significant portfolio includes cooperation with the Mondadori Group and Discovery Italia.
Sabrina's greatest strength is empathy, which encourages her subjects to open up and bare themselves in front of the lens. She offers an innovative and personal style - in her shots, there is all the elegance and lightness that distinguish her. However, it is reductive to consider her 'only' a photographer: her skills and knowledge allow her to manage all phases of a photoshoot, from creative direction to post-production. -
