In 2008 I got my first camera, a little  point-n-shoot (that is still my only type of digital camera). First, I wanted to capture landscapes, streets and skies, but when I got my first analog cameras in 2009 all I wanted was to shoot surrealistic stories and concepts. I used to draw sketches and write the plot, but by the time of taking the pictures, suddenly, new ideas and concepts came and it all ended up the most unexpected and fascinating way.

That same year, I discovered street photography while I was traveling across Europe. Strangers, stray animals and all the situations involving them became my new obsession, but most of the time I couldn’t get the picture of the best street scenes, mainly because of shyness.
