The first photographer of Riccione

The beach photographer was born in Riccione in 1902.

It is the early 1900s, when the Rimini-born Bianchi installs his hut on the beach and inaugurates the profession of "beach photographer", later called "Snap".

In those years the number of tourists economically justified this new profession, with postcards directly produced by photographers, thus becoming, unbeknownst to them, the first communicators of the destination of Riccione.

After 100 years, the figure of the "snap" on the beach still exists but with different and cutting-edge technologies. Now you have the shot on the beach printed in real time, as well as the memories of the holiday on your mobile phone.
