The combination of theRealizationand theDirection of photography has been fundamental for me, and an important added value, being theRealizationthe most demanded by my clients and the one that personally I am most passionate about at the moment.
I work meticulously and intensely, with serenity in the face of challenges, taking care of all the details and savoring each step of the work. My goal: to becapable of transmitting and arousing emotionsin those to whom each commission is directed, that public that we do not see, but that is the final recipient of the stories, just as we have imagined them.
