About
I was born and raised in Mexico City and spent most of my professional life playing basketball around the world. the transition into photography was so natural for me as no matter where I was, I had to have a camera in my hands, and lucky me, now I get to to this for a living. I've now brought my skills down under with my Aussie wife and my Mexican chihuahua to establish the happy donkey photography within Australia.
