About

My interest in photography began with a taste for visual documentation of urban sports in the early 2000s, expanding the most essential relationship between narrative and documentary language. In 2015 I joined the Colombian news agency Colprensa, where I worked for two years covering national news, being able to portray an important chapter of the current national history, the Peace Agreement between the National Government and the FARC Guerrilla in 2016. Parallel to this I made collaborations for Agencia EFE (Spanish government news agency) from 2017 to 2021. From 2020 until today I have done longer documentary work with a social focus that seeks to offer alternative narratives to the institutionalized ones. Part of this is the work with Agenda Propia (Latin American media of social ethnic issues in the region) Geo Lino (German children's magazine), Stranger's Guide (American magazine), Specialty Coffee Association (British magazine) and UNDP (United Nations Development Programme). I took technical studies in photography in 2011, a series of advanced courses in photography during the following years, in 2018 I did part of the summer semester at the University of Hannover, Germany, for the International Documentary Photography Class, an advanced program that promotes new talents from all over the world and exchanges ideas with European photographers and in 2019 I did part of the IWMF Adelante program in investigative journalism in risk contexts.
