Kimonoff is a new brand of kimonos "from home". The idea is to replace the classic bathrobe with a more elegant, casual and kimono-inspired style. As this is not a garment to go out of the house, the idea was to do the session in a house. I wanted to contrast the elegance and colorfulness of the fabrics with the
The photograph was taken for the packaging of a dermocellular repair cream. It was commissioned by the design studio By Talking in Barcelona. The briefing was very clear, precise and gave no room for error. It was about photographing the back of a girl who had sunbathed too much. The difficulty of the assignment was to take the photograph at
The photograph of the window was taken during a Strobist workshop class in Montevideo last year. It reminded me of the famous Hitchcock movie, where a photojournalist is forced to stay at rest with a leg in plaster. Despite the company of his girlfriend and his nurse, he tries to escape the tedium by observing from the window of his

The rooms of this location have been transformed into rooms with very different styles, with the purpose of being
A few years ago, maybe more than fifteen, my dear friend Pepi, showed me a place I knew I would like. It was the Uruguayan Boxing Association and there I met Antonio Canedo, a great fighter trainer.

I liked this series so much that I dedicated the "Stiletto" series to his famous living room with red curtains and "zig-zag" floor.
The following images were taken during the practical sessions of the Strobist workshop I gave in Montevideo, Uruguay, last August. The idea of the class was to teach the extremes of lighting, setting up different sets with hard or soft main lights.
