About Me…
Photography has always captured my imagination. One Christmas when I was a child, I received a small 110 ‘Spy Camera’ as a present. Quickly I was thrilled by the emotion of capturing subjects in pictures. You probably could not imagine the crazy and funny pictures I took… And even though they were irrelevant, shaky, blurry and awful in general, they were wonderful to me. I couldn’t wait for dad to bring the developed pictures back, and when he did, magic happened: we all sat down together to laugh and enjoy the moments. Photographs made us travel in time.
At age 15, my father lent me (without knowing it, of course!) his Canon EOS 1000F camera. I used to go around everywhere with it, thinking that I was the best photographer in the world. This led me to follow a passion for photography which later on took me to the Sagrado Corazón University of Puerto Rico, in which I started formal studies in photography, eventually completing a course in Professional Photography.
When I was young I had a dream of having a picture of my composition published. Now, photography has made magic again, making many of my work appear in dozens of publications nationwide.
I enjoy portraying my people, my food, our lifestyle. I like showing life and hope, in those simple everyday moments. There is beauty on every corner, there is history on every frame.
My mission is to create a living, durable proof that our life, our people and my Puerto Rico is a living masterpiece that breathes. After all, photography is magic: it makes us travel and dream…
