Behind the camera
(“I was there”)
Welcome to the stories behind each frame.
For over 25 years I've been photographing the streets, the architecture and the quiet details of the cities I move through — Barcelona, where I'm based, and everywhere the road takes me. This is where I slow down and tell you what I saw, why it caught my eye, and how the image came to be.
