...seja o que quer que facais, fazei tudo para dar gloria a Deus.

What?

I am studying at the moment in Sagunto, Spain, finishing a Theology Major. I also enjoy Photography and Graphic Design; occupations I have been developing and learning for the past years; sometimes on my own, other times through friends and workmates.

Why?

I still don't really know how to define why I photograph; it is how I study and enjoy the environment where I live at - either through portraits, nature, street or conceptual... It's a constant extra form of interaction that allows me to store and recall emotions or thoughts whenever I feel like.

Photography is also the capacity and immense pleasure of summoning powerful memories and stories on me and others - smiles, tears, but most of it, the life teaching out of every frame. (Full frame that is :p)

I haven't found all the reasons why I photograph yet, but there is something magic to the smell and touch of a roll of Provia or Tri-X...

Finally it is for me a way of glorifying God, since it has been through photography He has led me to meet and share many of the treasures He created on this Earth - people, flowers, special places or meaningful details...
