The main reason of my work comes from human research. Through documentary genre, I photograph different stories and contexts and through portraiture I get closer to their protagonists.

Due to this way of seeing, which I’ve been improving year by year since 2010, I’ve photographed from intimate and familiar contexts to large events. I also have traveled more than 10 countries recording the stories each place had to offer. Nowadays, I combine making reports with the development of my personal projects.

My home is between Madrid, Ibiza and Valencia (where I come from), although I use to travel frequently to produce new stories.
