The one and only me.

I have been meaning to write for long time now. And it's now when I finally decide to do so. I write in english because I wish to speak a language that is understood globally, which in fact its my goal. I wish to reach out through my images to people all around the world. How I will do that? Well that's still a work in progress.

I am currently a student at the Hallmark Institute of Photography, located in the beautiful town of Turners Falls, MA. Why there, you may ask. Well to me it seems to be the only place in the world where time can fly by without me having a sense of it.

You see, photography for me is more that a hobby. It is my passion. I have witnessed a couple of times, that whenever I fill anxious, desperate, sad, frustrated, or even feel lost in the universe, I can grab a camera look through the lens and forget about everything.

Over the last 7 months I having been taught by the most prepared and amazing human beings on how to become a professional photographer. From studio portraits, commercial, food, glass, metal, location, families, children, fashion, editorial, aerial, brochure design, catalog design, etc, Hallmark is giving me all that I could ever imagine in order for me to become the best that I can be as a photographer.

These past months I have been working on my Phase 3 Mandatory Portfolio. I would like to thank every single person that helped me out so that I could create these images. My teachers, family, my amazing boyfriend, friends, aunts, designers, make-up artist, models, you have been inspirational and remarkable.

I leave you with the images turned in. On these images I worked so hard to create a foundation of my future photography: have my essence in each image I present. It has been an interesting process (which late I will write to you about it).

For these images, I will be reviewed in front of a teacher panel this thursday.

For now, I've shared my word. Wish me luck.

Hope to hear your comments about this Portfolio!



















Have an AMAZING WEEK!
