About

Here are some facts about me!

Born and raised in the mountainous city of Monterrey, Mexico. 

I love travelling and exploring new places, specially doing road trips . I actually drove from my hometown in Mexico all the way to Calgary 2 times lol.

I’m a Certified Photographer from the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology, and have a diploma in Film and Video Production.

I consider my self a relaxed, go-with-the-flow type of person, but also adventurous and spontaneous at times too. I’m always down for having an enjoyable time.

Proudly part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community. 

My passion for photography was inspired by my grandfather who introduced me to the world of analogue photography. These events led to pursue my dream as a filmmaker and successively to successfully accomplish my Film Studies in Canada.

I loooove working on various types of photography like weddings, fashion portraits, architecture photography, landscapes, brand & product and many more. Most of my work have that minimalistic and authentic “raw” feeling. I enjoy capturing candid moments, and most importantly, I value involving my Mexican heritage and memories from the past into my work.
