I began as a graphic editor in a local newspaper in my hometown in 2004. Three years later, I started my work as a photojournalist in Granada’s local newspapers. In 2011, I joined the news agency “EFE” as a photographer, capturing images of the most relevant events in the city.
I left that job in 2014 to become a freelance photographer. This allowed me to dedicate more time to investigating and documenting the topics I consider most important, striving for a better understanding of the world we live in.
I currently reside in the southwest of Spain, in Huelva, very close to Portugal — an interesting location that connects me with diverse landscapes and cultures. I am fully available for assignments both nationally and internationally.
My photojournalist work has been published in local and national media in Spain, such as El País, El Mundo, Granada Hoy, as well as in national and international magazines.
