My passion is photography, film, music and above all I am a lover of my family.
How your life stories and experiences affect your photography?
I guess my personal experiences influence the way of seeing and feeling the photograph, but to be honest I'm not aware. In my images, I try to idealize reality, show the beauty of things, but always from my point of view.

Child, I always loved art, especially drawing. I wanted to study art, but I come from a poor family and I have to start working at an early age.
What attracted you to photography?
All !!! I discovered photography at 18, and then I got carried away by its creative possibilities, the B / W and the darkroom were my school. My learning was entirely self-taught.

aesthetic. In my pictures, there is always a healthy dose of reality but also of creation, I am always looking for perfection, beauty.

photography an exceptional work.
What is usually your relationship with your subject beyond being a mere observer?
To capture the essence of the person in a portrait, it is essential to empathize with person you have in front of the goal. I try to put myself in her skin and feeling what she feels, this is the only way to penetrate its interior space.
Do you prepare carefully the places or setting before shooting?
In the studio, I dedicate a minute to find the most favorable light to the result and I'm looking for a correct
exposure. After that, all my time is devoted to the model and I totally forget the technique.
When I manage to forget the technique this is at this moment that I really appreciate the act of photographing and unleash my creativity.
