Tobias in Panama | Personal Photography

Tobias a German Law Student, saves up all year, to come back to the place he once felt in love with, Panama.  This is what happens when I need to finish a roll on Black & White in my camera. I see a place, I have a model, I create these images... 

Laura | Maternity Portraits

In my last visit to Toronto,I was able to photograph Laura. She is becoming a mother of two pretty soon, and she couldn't be more beautiful. You are truly glowing! Soon to be a big sister, Gracie, was part of the session as well, and she loved the attention! I was so fortunate to had been able to capture the interaction between Laura and Gracie while awaiting the arrival of baby. I know they will treasure these images forever. And I can't wait your new bundle of joy!!

My FIND experience in New Orleans | Personal Photography

If you are into film, you will most definitely stumble upon Jonathan Canlas work, and his Film is Not Dead movement. Yes, I call it a movement, because that is exactly what it is. Through his workshops, his books, and his community he has managed to connect a bunch of people to help each other advance in their art of photography.  

I have an honest interest in become the best photographer I can be, and from the wide choice of workshops out there, including the thousands offered online, I chose the FIND Workshop because of the small group, intense learning setting that happens in three days. In those close quarters, you get to really bond with the attendees (all women in this case, and most of them with the most lovely southern accent!), and you are literally learning around the clock. I think that more than learning about film from an honest guy, the two most important things you can get out going to a FIND workshop are: first, the community you will be a part of of; second, the importance of defining who you are and what your voice is as a photographer. 

With this said, I don't think I will be a 100% film shooter. I have learned that film has great limitations, such as in low light situations. Steady hands, I don't have. And digital cameras are fabulous in low light. However, I do want to incorporate more film in all my shoots because it's pretty; because I love it; and because I think my clients will love too!
