the photographer
I think that every person should be photographed in the moments they’ve felt the most loved and cared for, and the image should serve as a eye to his/her soul.
PHOTOGRAPHER
IN A NUTSHELL
I was born and raised in Argentina. In 2012 I moved to The Netherlands. I am first and foremost a strong visual communicator, and I have embraced this aspect from very early on by expanding my knowledge on the graphics and visual arts, graphic design, composition and color theories. This all came together the moment I hold my first camera in my hands and thereafter it became a journey of exploration and passion.
values & personality
Detail-oriented, perfectionist and open-minded. I'm patience and very flexible when it comes to adapting to different situations and way of working. I value honesty to the core of my soul, you can appreciate my open communication style and above all, I'm passionate about what I do.
Definitely an introvert, INTJ to be more precise. I'm an observant of the world in front of me, logically-oriented, dissecting information to its basic element and discovering patterns and logic in every day moments of life. Visually oriented and prefer visual and graphics to communicate thoughts and ideas.
PHOTOGRAPHY STYLE & APPROACH
LEARN ABOUT MY WORK
photography style
PHOTOJOURNALISTIC & Documentary Photography
There are several ways in which an event such as wedding can be approached from a photographic stand point. On one hand you might have a style that focuses on the formality, which is rigid and demand posed situation, such as the photographer telling you how to look, how to stand and what to do, etc. That is the opposite of what documentary photography is about. In documentary or photojournalistic photography, the idea is to document or capture what is happening without much or none intervention at all by part of the photographer. The goal, my goal, is to tell your story by capturing the emotional moments that naturally occurs during the day. Think about your parents emotions, some relative crying, your closest friend happiness. This happens naturally during the way and me, as photographer, I'm usually anticipating such moments and focusing on the emotional storytelling. That is what documentary photography achieve, an emotional story.
work approach
honest, pure, discrete & quiet
As an introverted personality type, and as documentary photographer, I strive to not intervene in your way. I'm not the type of photographer that is going to point his camera 30 cm in front of your face, block your guests view of the key point of the ceremony, or bother everyone with non-stop "clicks" during speeches. My approach is to not intervene, to not get in the way, to not be noticed. Your wedding is about you and your intimate circle, not about the photographer. An exception is during pre-agreed family portraits or groom-bride portraits. In such cases, while I strongly strive for naturality and let both your personality flourish, I might suggest what to do, where to stand, etc. This is beneficial for both of us.

EMOTIONS and timeless look
It cannot stress enough how important the emotions of your wedding day are. At the end, when you look back at your photos in 5 or 10 years from now, you want to be able to feel those emotions like if they just happened. This is absolutely possible by removing distracting elements from the photos when they do not serve the purpose. For example, color can often be distracting. This is one of the key reasons I prefer black and white photographs for the most emotional images. Without the distraction of color, black and white can not only be compositionally stronger but this simpler, more digestible language also allows us to assess relationships between subjects and how this emotion is conveyed. Additionally, it add a timeless quality to images, a certain elegance that time cannot touch.
Naturally, there are parts of your wedding day where color is relevant and I do deliver those photos in color, think of general view of the venue, a details of flowers, decoration, a nice dress. These are by nature less focus on emotions and more detail-oriented, so naturally these are less fitted for black and white. Overall, my deliveries are approximately 50-50% between back and white and color, although this can be adjusted based on your preferences o course.
