He is known for starting his photo sessions with very tight shots from up-close to his subjects faces.[7] Although the handbra has been a popular part of the swimsuit issue for several years, Mazzucco was the first to achieve a handbra Swimsuit Issue cover photo with his eight-woman handbra 2006 shot. He is married to Lisa-Marie Mazzucco and has a son named Sascha.[1] He photographed Megan Ewing twice a year when she was a Guess Girl.[1]d
His photographs have been featured in a few widely published books: Sports Illustrated: Exposure (ISBN 9781933405858, 2006, Time, Incorporated Home Entertainment)[8] and A Second Decade of Guess Images: 1991-2001 (ISBN 9780963672810, 2003, Gingko Press, Incorporated).[9] The Sports Illustrated book is a derivative work from his 2006 Swimsuit Issue photo session.
His career started with work for Calvin Klein and as a music photographer. He then lived in Milan, Italy for three years while continuing photography but emphasizing more fashion than music.[1]
