PHOTO CONFESSIONAL: Cig Harvey
Intuitively making work. I have to go out into the world and just photograph. Everything else will come.
PHOTO CONFESSIONAL: Scott McIntyre
I’d say that letting go of any preconceived notions of what kind of photographer that I SHOULD be and let myself be the photographer I want to be.

I trust my instincts, simply because I have ZERO patience

They opened up the world to me. It made me realize the power of a single image to transport, inform, and move.

Instinct. I like to respond to the rhythm of the street.
PHOTO CONFESSIONAL: Ernesto Costante
Feeling motivated by an event that captivates my attention. If I feel that it hits me, that it moves me, that it paralyzes my heart and raises questions, I start working.

I deeply want my photos to capture not just the wild, but the soul within it. Something raw, emotional, and real.

The most crucial decision in my career development was migration.

I KEEP IT SIMPLE.
PHOTO CONFESSIONAL: Lucia Lamata
It’s really important. I love improvising and going with the flow, but when I step into a world that’s not my own, I feel the need to understand it better. It helps me approach everything with respect.
PHOTO CONFESSIONAL: Brais Lorenzo
I guess committing seriously to the path of photojournalism. It’s not an easy road.

In NYC in particular you are one in 8 million and what I’ve realised is that the more you look into your identity and your origins, the better is the outcome of your projects.

212: WORLD PRESS PHOTO 2025
I had to work fast. My camera doesn’t handle high ISOs well, so I kept it at 1600. I was using a Nikon Z6 II with a 24mm f/1.8 prime lens, which allowed me to open the aperture as much as possible. I set the shutter speed to 1/160, a bit of a risk given the movement, but it was necessary to expose the scene properly in the low light.
ON LOCATION:
My experience as a migrant transformed my approach to photography, particularly as a portraitist, using the medium to foster connections. Buenos Aires exposed me to a vibrant art scene and impactful exhibitions, yet also prompted me to reflect on my own practices against the backdrop of Argentina's strong documentary tradition and political discourse.
