Street photography for me, it's a lot about fiction.

It's about creating your own story out of every day facts.

It's not about subject matter, it's about how you saw it and how you felt it.

The personality of the photographer makes an image unique.

I was working as a journalist, but I felt that I hadn't found myself and then when I found photography, I thought, "That's something that I love doing".

To watch life unfold in front of me, the lives of other people and just forget my own self.

I just started seeing photos everywhere.

Many people who start in street photography, they're a bit afraid of how to approach people.

I think your attitude is essential.

You have to be respectful and you have to be confident and relaxed about what you're doing.

And I think that's one of the secrets of street photography.

You really have to enjoy being on the streets.

Color photography for me is a lot about emotions.

It doesn't matter if I'm shooting this or that.

It's more about what you feel when you see a shining red or a deep blue.

The relationship between the colors in the frame that can make the image work or not.

I like to treat each color individually.

Sometimes a red can just be too orange or too magenta depending on the source of the light that it's shot in.

I like my blacks to be very deep, but at the same time, I like to have some nice details in the shadows, so people can see more than what's going on in the main action.

I think anticipation is key in street photography.

I always have my camera on me.

And it's not in your bag, it has to be in your hands.

With new cameras you can shoot like twelve frames per second, but for me, it just doesn't work.

I'd rather just be more present and press the shutter when I actually see a character do the right thing.

I think I shoot a lot of reflections 'cause they just represent the way I see and feel busy cities.

Zoom lenses are great for reflections 'cause basically you just compress the layers, and you can create a totally unexpected image.

I like the viewers to see the pictures and to try to guess, well, what's going on here?

I always like, some mystery in my photos.

Street photography can be many things, actually.

For me, it's a way of self expression and the way to get to know the world.

Just get up and get your camera and walk out the door, watch people just walking down to the metro station and the colors and all this motion and all the different characters.

Lights just bouncing, illuminating people in a very special way.

The world can be an endless playground, as long as I have my camera on me.
