About Me
I’m a photographer based in Barcelona. My passion for photography comes from finding hidden beauty in details: the echo of an abandoned factory, the texture of an ancient village, the city weaving stories in every corner, or a piece of unexpected art on a wall.
Many of my journeys — especially to old factories, forgotten industrial sites, and other abandoned places — are done entirely alone. That solitude is not just a practical choice; it’s a vital part of the adventure. Walking through silent, decaying spaces without distraction allows me to immerse myself fully in the atmosphere, to feel the weight of history, and to let each location speak in its own voice. The experience itself becomes as meaningful as the photographs I bring back.
I’m driven by the need to stop the time and preserve a place, a scene or simply a feeling. Whether I’m immersed in nature, exploring urban landscapes in black and white, or celebrating vivid colors, my aim is always the same: to transform the ordinary into something special.
This space is both a photographic and personal journey — each image an invitation to experience the world as I feel it. Happy to connect!
