Declinations of Joy. Taking photographs: visions and portrayals

Taking photographs, visions and portrayals”, arises from a desire to regain possession of photography as action and content, as well as the happiness and the emotions this generates and that at times are lost between the drama of reportage and the glamour of fashion photography.
