I worked in the oil and natural gas industry until that just a few days after 9/11 I had a vision that made me decide to dedicate myself completely to my passion – photography. It is a gift of nature to have an eye for photography, and I decided to follow that path. A gift and a responsibility: to freeze a moment for the future. I try to be faithful to the mission of being a photographer. I try to utilize that gift in the best manner that I can. I just love everything photography.
