Attempting to escape the bucolic town of his youth Fernando's right
brain grew up on a diet of National Geographics strewn across the
coffee table, Jolly Ranchers and marine adventure
animal specials on TV.

Once in college and counseled to find something useful to study
Fernando's left brain backed into a Psychology major by accruing
sufficient credits although it was a toss up between that and
Philosophy. Finding neither head in the clouds academia nor clinical
research on rats appealing he went back to Art School much to his
father's dismay.

In Art School, working once again with his hands and making prints, he
was much happier. So he went traveling to pursue his lifelong passion
in ethnography and cultures. Soon he was getting paid as a photographer for an adventure travel company in Berkeley.
The backpack finally came off a few years later with travel assignments in Spain, Mexico, Bolivia, Turkey, Thailand and Patagonia.

Now he shoots in a studio and on location for advertising and fashion clients and still takes travel stock photos.
