I was born in Buenos Aires (Argentina) in 1978. My passion for landscape photography started during my first trip to Patagonia almost ten years ago, with a 35mm SLR film camera at my disposal. I was amazed by the natural beauty and wilderness of this land. I was born and raised in a big flat and contaminated city, that´s why that first contact with the wild nature produced such a big impact on me. At that moment I realized that I would live there some day, and felt the urge to capture and communicate al those moments and places i´ve been witness.
All my motivation comes from nature and the possibility that it gives me to experience, capture, and show to the world something different and unique every time i go out shooting. Mother nature has always something new to show us, it´s shapes, textures, colors and moments of light are endless. Through photography i can materialize one of the things i enjoy most in life: being in touch with nature, hear its sounds, witness its spectacular events. Satisfactory experiences fill the soul, and the simple fact to look a photograph of an event that marked to us is capable to bring to the memory the greatest moments of our lives.
This is how i see nature through photography, and what i do best, i hope you enjoy and feel inspired by my photos as much as i enjoyed taking them.
