My experience in photography goes back a long time, before I studied architecture at Sydney University, which were I did a formal technical training in the field. I did theory and practice, I was able to do developing of photography the old fashion way and I gained and deep understanding of the practice and theoretical aspect of it.

First of all I do enjoy photography for the sake of it although I take the subject very seriously but one must take pleasure in what he or she does, secondly I believe every situation deserve an specific approach to it, I do not stop learning, I love to do know new things and I like to experiment in photography whenever it is possible, having said that the years of experience have giving me a working method, which I may alter if suitable.

I have studied photography at Sydney University, and I have worked and collaborated with Seville local media groups specialling in the local festivities such as the hollyweek, amongst them were, “Pasion in Sevilla”, and “Semana Santa de Sevilla TV” I also run my own site for this photos called “A Paso Mudá”.
