My background comes from fashion design, pattern making, personal image consultancy, personal shopping, beauty and styling.

 

I moved from Spain to London in 2011 to improve my skills and career. I started to organise photo shoots with teams as a creative director and stylist to build a fashion portfolio. It was a great experience but too slow to get the results I wanted so I decided to buy a camera to do it in my own. 

 

In 2015 I created an own small studio with the basic stuff, I mean a piece of white material and two continuous lights to photo shoot as much as I could at the same time I was working as a retail manager for an important brand.

​

The first pictures of my portfolio were a pure experiment of creativity and fashion done with a very low budget or without. They are definitely not good from the photographic point of view but I simply love them because they explain well my story and evolution.

​

I started to publish my work in social media getting a good feedback from old and new contacts about my creativity and commitment so it kept me even more motivated to carry on and keep on working.

​

In 2017 life gave me the opportunity to quit my job as a full-time manager to focus in what I liked the most.

​

I registered my profile in several agencies to work as a supporting artist in cinema, TV and commercials.

It was something I loved since I did my first job.

 

From that time I had the luck to work in all studios of London with important cinema directors, actors and professional people who taught me lots; I did many featured, doubling, stand in roles in good productions and some spoken characters.

 

I love acting as much as I do photography.

Both are a fantastic way to express my talent of playing roles and working with emotions.

​

Now, I have my own studio in London fully equipped. I photo shoot myself mainly but I have clients who approach me because they like my pictures. All customers I had were very happy with my service so I feel pleased and content.

​

Also, I started to sell on-line some of the items of my pictures in several platforms. It is being quite good. Probably in a future I will start my own store in this site but I guess I will do it when I get the quality items I have in mind, step by step.

​

For the moment I will keep my focus on cinema and photography. I would like the opportunity to cast for better roles and to get better designs for my  pictures and videos to create more characters and to tell beautiful stories.

​

I just know I am proud of what I achieved to date, I love what I do and I will keep working on my own challenges.

​

Thanks for reading.

Best wishes,
