A camera can make us see the world.

 

I'm Gustavo, but you can call me GUGA. I'm an advertising copywriter by formation and a photographer by soul. I can write with a pen, a keyboard and also with a camera.
I'm an only child, adopted, and I've always felt a little different from my adoptive family. (I always felt and felt their love, of course). But it's funny that this feeling of being different manifested the "observational" spirit in me.
 I was always quieter, watching the things that happened in my surroundings. I was always very observant and took pictures with my eyes without realizing it. As if they were the lenses of a camera, and with my memory, as if it was the film.
One day, I got an old camera from a dear aunt, and from then on, what I was doing mentally, I started doing in the physical world. For me, the camera serves to help create human connections. Both when I'm photographing and when I'm showing someone my work.

Welcome to my life.
