Miami · Photographer & Filmmaker

Ten years
chasing light.

I'm David. I make portraits, editorial work and film. This is my archive — a decade of faces, places and frames — and an open door if you'd like to make something together.

The short version

For over ten years I've done one thing — look closely. Thousands of photographs, hundreds of shoots, films that still move me. Photography started as a hobby and never stopped being one. It's still the way I understand a room, a person, a moment of light.

The reel

The moving picture of a decade.

A short cut of the film and motion work — the same eye, thirty frames a second.

What I do

A few things,
done properly.

Portraits

My favorite thing. Getting a real person to show up in a frame — not a pose, a person.

Editorial

Series and stories. Fashion, culture, the small worlds that fit inside a magazine spread.

Film & motion

Ten years of stills taught me to see; film taught me to let the frame breathe and move.

The finishing

Color, edit, and design. The quiet last 10% that makes an image feel finished, not just taken.

Open door

Let's make it.

This is a personal page first — but I'm always open to good work. Portraits, editorial, a film, or just a question about photography. Share an idea, a doubt, or a project. The inbox is real.
