After finishing his studies in Roberto Mata’s photographic workshops and assisting some of the most influential photographers in the commercial and fashion industry in his hometown, he decided to pursue a career as a freelance photographer. Don soon got his first assignments as a photographer and won awards in various local and European contests. His panache for perfecting his craft led him to move to the United States and continue with his studies in photography. He is currently living in London, working on both, personal and professional projects.
