Fornero Photography About

Wesley Fornero has been photographing since the age of 16. Starting out with his Nikon n50, he photographed his high school's sporting events and some senior portraits. Two years later Wesley began his photographic career working for a local wedding photographer as his assistant/second shooter for a wedding and portraiture company. Wesley has been classically trained in portraiture photography and has also worked for a high volume high school portrait photographer for 4 years. While still in college, Wesley continued his work in wedding photography and portraiture, adapting his style from traditional to contemporary and photojournalistic. Wesley has also been photographing college sports for the past 5 years, working with school such as M.I.T., Tufts University, and Mt Holyoke, providing them with action, team and individual photos for the college's use. These experiences have sculpted his style of shooting to what it is today.

“I’m always trying new and exciting shots. Brides usually tell me that they don't think a shot will work and end up loving it when they see it.”

Wesley's proudest moments have been the welcoming of his first son, Frankie, born in July 2008 and also becoming an American Citizen, all with in 4 days of one another.

“During the busiest time for weddings, I became a dad and an American citizen, it was exciting and scary all at the same time.”

Born in Brazil, Wesley is fluent in Portuguese.
