"One does not photograph something simply for 'what it is', but 'for what else it is'" - Minor White

Originally from Argentina, I am a portrait and fine art photographer based in Elkhart, Indiana, father to a wonderful son, and husband to a patient and gracious wife.

My primary focus lies in editorial and portrait photography, as well as fine art photography. I have worked with a number of modeling agencies , as well as apparel brands within the U.S. and abroad. My fine art photography has been featured in two exhibitions, and many of my works are currently available locally through Craft in Elkhart, as well as The Local in Goshen.

When I am not photographing or spending time with my family, you will find me playing soccer, reading and writing philosophy. I have written a number of papers, one of which has been published in an international philosophical journal.
