BIOGRAPHY
Freelance photographer with a decade of professional experience, currently based in Madrid, Spain. I specialize in documentary photography and photojournalism.

My previous background as an architect has significantly enriched my ability to establish unique connections between subjects and their spatial environment and context when photographing. This is reflected in my photographic compositions, known for their cleanliness and clarity. This distinctive approach has become my personal hallmark, providing a unique and profound perspective to my visual storytelling.

My photographic journeys through China, Guatemala, Mexico, Poland, and Morocco have heightened my passion for addressing social and humanitarian issues. During these experiences, I have had the opportunity to explore and capture stories that transcend cultural and linguistic barriers, using photography as a powerful medium to amplify the voices of diverse individuals and communities worldwide.

As a photo reporter, I have collaborated with the prestigious international agency Bloomberg. My work has been featured in various digital and print publications, both in Peru and on a global scale, with assignments to renowned media such as The New York Times (USA), The Washington Post (USA), CNN (USA), Libération (France), Nature (UK) among others.

In recent years, I have also honed my skills as a filmmaker, creating documentary short films, corporate videos, and covering institutional events, founding the audiovisual production house: TILT Photo + Video (production house focused on documentary photography and video with a social approach).

I founded the Instagram account EverydayPeru as part of the EverydayProjects initiative. Additionally, I am an active member of the Diversify Photo community, supporting BIPOC and non-western photographers.
