Documentary photography and reports, photography of stories and events.

Sandra wanted new photos for her social networks. She likes to grow plants, and I offered to photograph her in the process to get an organic and lively image.

Barcelona, 08.17.2021.

Soleil is Iris's daughter who offered me to take photos of them while they were traveling through Barcelona. They invited me to the lobby of their hotel to have coffee, talk about life and have fun taking photos. We had a great time, and here is one of the portraits I took of Soleil during that impromptu meeting.

I found it on the street while walking around Barcelona with my camera. I asked him if I could take a couple of photos, and he said no problem. That's how we met, and he told me that he has lived in Barcelona for 20 years. 10 of which on the street. Its address has not changed throughout that time, Carrer d'Elisabets, 8, to the right of the entrance to the Escola Laboré. In front of the Dos Palillos restaurant. They can find you there if they want to give you support, offer work or rehabilitation.

Barcelona, 08.14.2020.

Apart from commercial photography, I dedicate myself to documentary photography. Few people understand that camera RAW files are graphically unalterable. They are negatives of the shots and legally serve as documents of past reality. I made this photo in the Plaça Nova (New Square) in Barcelona. It was the post-pandemic time. Many were hungry.
Barcelona, 03.07.2021.

I offered Sandra to take a photographic walk through Barcelona at night and document things that happened. We chose the W Hotel Barcelona area. It is one of the photographs we took at that time.

I was on a trip to Russia and I stopped by my hometown to see my parents. My dad lives alone in his house on the outskirts of the city. He knew that I was making a photo report of my trip, so he allowed me to document his life a bit.

Archie is a professional calisthenics and gymnastics athlete. I took this photograph during his training in the park. I always try to take pictures that have a cinematic look, even if they are documentaries.

It's a photograph of the skaters' championship that I came to document.

Barcelona, 09.12.2021.

Tonya's second photograph. It is a half shot portrait. This type of photography serves perfectly to vary the narrative of the series without breaking its concept.

Tonya's third photograph is a floor plan showing her work environment in detail.
