The Return to La Pintada

Panama | Sunday, January 13, 2013 | 5 photos

This is a Personal Project I did to my second mother, when she went back to her town in La Pintada a small area in Penonome a place outside Panama City.

I'm 26 years old, I studied graphic design and recently quit my job after taking various photography courses, I have been designing for 5 years in an advertising agency and never felt that emotion as when I take a picture.
Im trying to find stories and make them justice, as simple as they look there is always something deeper and more pure that is shown after spending the enough time inside that life that you are about to discover.
I just follow my heart, photograph what really moves me and what can tell a story, but mostly has to fill my heart.
Love going on a trip by myself getting off the car and staying in a place taking pictures with no hurry, trying to get something out of the earth, the people, the sky.
Simple things, the good things, the stories of people that you don't know and somehow they get in your skin that's what i love, its basic but it is what i feel.
