“Moments in Between”
Street photography is often a stage where people unconsciously are actors of their own comedies. The real world becomes a choreography for stories or allegories, subject to different interpretations.
“Moments in Between” is a collection of pictures that somehow make me think about life as a theatre: joy, sweetness, drama or oddness come on the scene.
My first contact with photography was strong, nice and short. I was 10 years old when I brought the camera of my father with me, during a school trip. I took some pictures of fake dinosaurs in a Jurassic Park for children. I ran out two rolls of film, I was so proud and happy. The day after my dad told me I could have bought nice postcards instead of wasting money and film.
In 2005 I graduated in Aerospace Engineering and I received a compact digital camera as present from some friends of mine. I started taking pictures again.
Except for two photographic workshops, I am an all self-taught since day one. My current body of work is a culmination of swear, tears, countless mistakes, lot of passion and even some good advice from my dad.
