About

Born in Spain (La Coruña, Galicia), currently based in Madrid, I have lived, worked and studied in Dublin, Miami and Los Angeles. I have a degree in International Marketing (DCU, Dublin, and UAM, Madrid). I consider myself a world observer (photographer), constantly on the move. I have worked in newspapers for almost ten years, and now as a freelancer, I acccept assignments for travel or social work in any destination.

Recents projects include:

- “Miami Beach breathes at night”

- “The US real estate crisis”

- “The other face of Syria”: a journalistic look at Syria through a portrait of its population, from it president and political leaders to its working class (Text: Pedro Pulgar)

- “Think twice”: A photographic portrait of the city of Los Angeles, CA, from two different, opposite points of view, emphasizing dramatic contrasts in lifestyle through the use of visual metaphors, using cliche images as a starting point.

- “The barefoot bishop”: An inspiring Spanish missionary man looks after children injured by landmines in Cambodia, providing them with care, medical attention and education (text: Ruth Toledano)

- “Baywatch”: Portraits of beach “baywatchers” photographed in their work environment in various parts of the world, from Latvia to Hawai, and from Miami to Montevideo.

- “Supermodel 2007”: a casted group of wannabe models strive to win a supermodel contest in the Spanish television. This work shows the making of the promo commercial, starring top model Judith Mascó.

- “Europe, la nuit”: Life beats in European cities after the sun goes down. Restaurants, clubs, discos, bars. Music and DJs. Night people portraits. The series starts with Lisbon and Berlin.

- Series on Spanish historical towns (photo + text available)

Looking for a photographer with an archive of dogs and cats

We are currently looking for a photographer with an extensive and strong archive of pictures of dogs, and another one with pictures of cats, for two different editorial projects, involving distribution of theme books bundled with another product in the Polish market. We need about 50 images for each book. The one about dogs is urgent. Please send details to miguel.pereira@mindset.com.es . Of course, there will be a payment for the use of the pictures, but budget is quite limited; that´s why we´re looking at working with one photographer for each project, so that we can cut a deal that is interesting both for him/her and for us.

Thanks.
