Selfportrait by: Mi amor and I

Photographer and videographer.

A now Scottish mediterranean soul, based in Edinburgh for the last 6 years , originally from Barcelona.
I work as a freelance photographer and videographer in between Edinburgh-Barcelona, amongst other sometimes unpredictable destinations. Theatre, concerts and events are my specialty, working with performers fulfils my wonders. Sometimes behind the scenes, sometimes close to the dancer while expressing an amazing dancing piece. Occasionally following the moves of a violin player and dancing synchronically while behind my camera.

This artistic journey started long ago, back in Barcelona I use to be a painter and a poet,. Painting allowed me to free my dreams, and ask visual questions to the world. At the same time, poetry led me to create a more universal language to comprehend myself and to the world.

Spent almost a year painting on the pavements of Edinburgh , colourful landscapes would suddenly emerge from my fingertips. This was my job, I couldn’t play a decent song on a guitar, but I could still do my silent busking.

Then a camera appeared on my life.. I will not tell you more. Please ask me if you happen to meet me.
