TITLE: Mr. Salvador

I've been knowing Mr. Salvador for a while. He works across the street and we only share greetings every day. He is a quiet and simple man. This portrait was an opportunity to connect our stories and I believe we can see throw his eyes how much knowledge, dreams and feelings he has.

I'm a professional image retoucher, working for almost 20 years in the advertising industry. During all my career, I've tried to balance the technical skills and the artistic flow on my work. Photography was always my truly passion, but, living in a developing country, it's really hard to follow your dreams and pay the bills at the same time. That is why, just in the past few years, I was able to start following this dream as a self-taught photographer.
