Hello and thanks for dropping by! Here's a little bit about myself...
Personal Mini Bio
Born and bred in Spain, I left the country at the young age of 25. I spent 1 year in Germany and the following 9 in England, where I met my husband. In 2005 we sold pretty much everything we owned and set off on a trip of a lifetime. We went backpacking through South, Central and North America, Australia and New Zealand - a total of 16 countries in 21 exciting months.
Although we went back to the England for another 15 months, we eventually emigrated to New Zealand in 2008, and we're loving it here!! After spending the first 3 years in the beautiful Hibiscus Coast, we are currently based in Hamilton.
Professional Mini Bio
During the week I work as a freelance website developer. Photography has always been a favourite hobby of mine and I rarely go anywhere without my camera(s). Last year (2011), I decided to take my hobby a step further and uploaded my first pictures onto Photosales. Soon after I photographed my first sporting event, a very different type of photography to what I was used to - and I loved it!! I have since covered a few more events and hope to continue doing so this year.
Other Skills / Additional Information
I am a bit of dab hand at Photoshop - if you require photo manipulation services please get in touch. There are some examples on my facebook page if you'd like to take a took; just click on Photos, then Photo Manipulation.
I love getting constructive feedback on my work and I view every job as an opportunity to learn and develop my skills further.
I am bilingual in English and Spanish, very outgoing and good with people, so if you are looking for a photographer for your next event, I'd love to hear from you!
