Hello! I’m a documentary photographer, filmmaker, drone operator, and writer based between San Sebastián, Bilbao, and Saint-Jean-de-Luz, working across Spain, France, and internationally. My work spans editorial, portrait, corporate, travel, and environmental photography, always grounded in a desire to understand the places I encounter and the people who inhabit them. I’m drawn to stories that reveal how landscapes shape lives, how societies evolve, and how the small details of everyday life can say so much about who we are.

I’m represented by Panos Pictures in London, and over the years my work has appeared in leading publications such as The New York Times, El País Semanal, Le Monde, Monocle, National Geographic Traveler, The Guardian, Time, and Der Spiegel. I also collaborate regularly with organizations including Greenpeace, MSF, UNHCR, UNICEF, UNEP, Bosch, and Siemens, developing visual narratives that explore humanitarian issues, environmental change, culture, and identity. I’m also a member of Wonderful Machine, which connects my work to clients and creative networks around the world.

Since 2017, I’ve been an AESA-approved drone operator, which has allowed me to incorporate aerial perspectives into both commissioned and personal work. The drone has expanded the way I see landscapes, revealing patterns, scars, and structures that aren’t obvious from the ground. At the same time, I continue to photograph with analogue film, a slower and more deliberate process that encourages a deeper attention to light, texture, and the quiet moments that often go unnoticed.

I’m fluent in English, Spanish, French, and Basque, something that helps me work fluidly across cultures and build trust with the people I photograph. Whether I’m shooting in Spain, France, Africa, Latin America, or the Pacific, my approach is rooted in curiosity and respect for the communities and environments I document.

My personal projects are a central part of my practice. Sand Castles is a long-term exploration of Spain’s abandoned urban developments following the 2008 real-estate crisis. The series looks at how ambition, speculation, and political decisions leave visible marks on the landscape, and how nature slowly begins to reclaim those spaces. More recently, The Idea of Success examines coastal development along the Costa Blanca, questioning the values and aspirations that shape modern urban growth. These projects allow me to reflect on society’s relationship with progress, territory, and memory.

In addition to photography, I produce films for Arte TV, BBC Reel, CNN Vision, AJ+, and other platforms. Filmmaking offers a different rhythm and a broader narrative structure, giving me space to explore character, sound, and movement. It complements my still photography and deepens the way I approach storytelling.

I do this work because photography is how I understand the world — it’s the way I connect to people and places. Through the camera I pay attention, I listen, and I try to make sense of the stories unfolding around me. It helps me see what often goes unnoticed and turn those quiet moments into something that lasts.

Whether I’m documenting a remote landscape, a rural business, an environmental challenge, or the everyday rhythm of a community, my aim is to create images that resonate and stay with people. I believe in photography and film as tools for empathy — ways of slowing down, looking closer, and opening space for reflection. Through my work, I try to offer fresh perspectives, both literal and emotional, and to share stories that cross borders and languages.
