ABOUT ME
A quite jack of all trades. Whom enjoys delving into conversations around art and peoples unique perspectives into the world.
PHILOSOPHY
I try and be open-minded "mente abierta" to all possibilities in life.
Working with others to create magic moments in photography is my drive. Connecting with fellow musicians and audience through music, where i play saxophone, provides that soul release. Letting go at festivals and partying till sun rise is my love. Keeping relaxed and simple at home is my foundation. Communicating, listen and being respectful is my focus.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
At the age of 13 I went to Laura Plantation in New Orleans USA. This is a historical site of where slave labour was very prominent. This experience filled me with such a sense of astonishment of what tragedy and pain people can cause each other. An opened my mind to what racism is, and how ridiculous it is. I kept thinking "why would someone be so evil to someone because of the colour of their skin?"
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach about photography. Be it helping with basic functions on your point and shoot to advanced details on your SLR. Bring on Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. I've taught many people and am more than happy to share.
i'm mega handy with computers. Especially when it comes to printing.
