20 Years of experience

I am a human race believer. I give huge value to relationships between human beings themselves and nature. I am a natural storyteller, through still mages we can work together to narrate stories, emotions, moments, conflicts. I love working with children, actors and models. My photography style is based on filmmaking aspects of storytelling. Each project is discussed to find the best collaboration between clients and team, achieving the results wanted.

A fun fact about me

I have just discovered the world of scuba diving... I also enjoy building your home from scratch... demolishing, designing, restoring... I am passionate for animals. My life is fulfilled by the two sweetest dogs: Snowball my pup white lab, and Courage, a 16 years old jack russel, which is full of vinegar!
