Visiting El Salvador has been one of the most gratificante experiences, where inspiration expanded to discover new scenarios. In one of the travels, I met a genuine girl named Ariela, since the beginning of the photoshoot we started getting along very well, like if we knew each other before; we created some beautiful images, everything so spontaneous, the way I like to work. The one’s that have worked with me before, they know this, I don’t like to over direct and limit the persona I’m photographing, so we can capture the most genuine essence of each person in the final images.
