Her passion for art led her to specialize in Fine Art photography, a discipline that combines photographic technique with pictorial sensitivity.Her study of the origins of classical painting and her admiration for great masters such as Rembrandt, Leonardo da Vinci, and Caravaggio served as inspiration to create images that transport characters to distant eras, narrating visual stories full of depth and symbolism.Her work is characterized by an aesthetic inspired by the Renaissance and the Baroque, with compositions that evoke profound emotions such as protection and spirituality. Through portraiture, she explores memory, emotion, and symbolism, creating images that transform the everyday into poetic narratives.
