About me
I’m a Spanish-born photographer and filmmaker whose work is known for its imaginative and original slant on subjects. With over 30 years experience of shooting on location and in the studio for editorial, design, and advertising clients in the UK and worldwide, I approach each job with a fresh perspective and the highest attention to detail. My work is about capturing both portrait and lifestyle imagery by spotting the unusual in the world and capturing unique moments in time. I enjoy taking photos of candid, everyday observations of the world and the people around me, focusing on finding the beauty in the mundane and celebrating human ingenuity and real life stories, creating positive and funny images. Regardless of the location or lighting scenario for each project, I love coming up with inventive and spontaneous ideas. With my portrait photography, I like to inject my sense of humour which helps build a connection to the people who are sitting for me, capturing something both distinctive and natural. I like to use the same approach to filmmaking as I do to my stills, whether they’re promotional videos or short films. I directed my first short film The Beast of Romney Marsh, a comedy, which has gone on to win several awards on the film festival circuit in 2021. My clients have included BT, Oracle, Canon, GSK, Unilever, Virgin, Vodafone and Diageo and my work has won awards from AOP, Communication Arts, Color Awards and Design Week.
