More recently I’ve been trying different types of photography, and I’m hoping to develop my...

q: You’re a fashion communications student who’s into photography, I’m guessing the next step is to be a fashion photographer?
a: Not necessarily! There’s always going to be crossovers with fashion and art but I wouldn’t want to limit myself by purely doing Fashion Photography, I just want to take good photographs, no matter what style.

q: Why do you take pictures?
a: I am fascinated by the photograph’s ability to allow me to make a moment infinite. I think I have some sort of latent fear that I’ll forget things, so photography is a way for me to preserve memories. It also lets me express something…I’m not even sure what. I know a lot of photographers who have a specific intent with...

q: What does photography mean to you?
a: Photography is capturing this essence of light in a tiny box, it lets me view the world with another set of eyes. And through that, I can create whatever I want. It means that I can never go back to that one moment, but I’ll have these pixels to never lose.
q: Camera of choice?

q: You mentioned that you have a preference for shooting in black and white, why?
a: That’s kind of a hard question. One of the reasons is because I first learned photography by doing black and white film, and I think that just stuck with me. I also just like how things look in black and white. I like how it brings focus to the shapes in the photograph, the light, and the...

q: What was the last gig you went to?
a: As I work as a promoter full time I tend to always go to shows I’m either involved in running or Djing at. I genuinely can’t remember the last show I went to where I wasn’t doing something!

q: You have a thing for vandalized trains, why?
a: Am I that obvious? Haha, well, it’s a non-stop ride! Trains from all over the country come and go bringing names and histories along with them, always on the move and hardly ever in the same place. What a shame for us not to do the same.

q: What do you like (or not like) about photography?
a: I love it so much because it´s my way to speak my weird language. I think its kind of a language which is not sorted by countries. Its sorted by generations. You can tell the truth or you can lie. As hard as want you to. My stuff is as honest as possible and shows my view on my pretty wasted but...
