The Many Forms of Abundance: Reflections Between the Jungle and the Sea

Lately I’ve been reflecting a lot about what abundance truly means. A few days ago, I took my bicycle and rode to the beach through tropical roads surrounded by forests, monkeys, birds, giant trees, and the smell of the ocean in the air. And during that ride, I found myself thinking deeply about life, about the path that brought me here, and about the kind of life I have been trying to build since leaving everything familiar behind. For a long time, like many people, I associated abundance...

Si ya viste el curso, esto te interesa

Hola,Reader Quería contarte algo de forma simple. Reabrí el curso de Macrofotografía en la Naturaleza No es un curso nuevo, pero sí es una NUEVA versión actualizada. Volví a revisar todo el contenido, ordenarlo mejor y ajustar y agregar algunas cosas para que sea más claro y más aplicable cuando estás en el campo. Cuando empecé con la macrofotografía, aprendí sola. Probando, equivocándome, volviendo a intentar. Y hubo cosas importantes —como entender realmente la luz— que me llevaron mucho...

Why I choose the small world

Hello Reader I hope you’ve had a moment recently to slow down, even just a little. Lately, I’ve been thinking about something I get asked often — a simple question, but one that carries a deeper story: Why do I photograph such small things? In a world that celebrates what is big, striking, and immediately impressive, choosing to focus on tiny, often overlooked lives can seem unusual. Insects, small amphibians, quiet details most people walk past… And yet, this is where everything changed for...

Nature has been inventing for millions of years…

Hello,Reader Sometimes, when we look closely enough, the world becomes larger. Recently, I found myself reflecting on something that continues to amaze me: many of the inventions we celebrate as human achievements — architecture, paper, climate control, chemical defense, even diving systems — were already being explored by insects millions of years before we existed. This reflection, deeply inspired by ideas from my book The World of Small, led me to write a new article where I share some of...

Tiny lives, giant strategies

Hello Reader I hope this message finds you well, wherever you are reading from. Today I wanted to share a quiet reflection — one born from time spent close to the ground, moving slowly, and paying attention to lives that are often overlooked. There is a whole world holding the forest together that most people never notice. It lives close to the ground, inside leaves, beneath bark, along fragile stems. These lives don’t rely on strength or speed to survive. They rely on precision, timing,...

Deep Gratitude for Your Support

Hi Reader, I’m writing today with a full heart, simply to say thank you. When my photography gear broke, asking for help wasn’t easy for me. I’m someone who is used to handling things on my own, quietly and independently. But this time, I reached out — and you showed up in ways that truly moved me. Your donations, messages, and support mean that I can continue telling the hidden stories of nature — the small lives that matter so deeply and hold our ecosystems together. Because of you, I’ll be...

🌙 The jungle isn’t hiding — here’s how to finally see it

Today I want to share a new blog article that comes straight from my heart and from years of guiding people through the rainforest. One question I’m asked all the time is:“How do you find all those tiny creatures?” People think it’s magic… or that I was born with special eyes. But the truth is much simpler and so much more meaningful:the jungle reveals itself to those who learn how to look. My newest article is called: 👉 “How to See the Unseeable: Training Your Eyes for the Jungle”In this...

When Inspiration Fades (A Personal Confession)

Hi Reader, Today I want to share something much more personal than usual—something I’ve been moving through quietly for the past weeks. I’ve been feeling disconnected from my photography. Not from nature itself, not from the rainforest that surrounds me every day, but from that inner spark that used to pull me toward my camera with excitement, curiosity, and devotion. This season taught me things I didn’t expect.About inspiration.About the pressures of the photography industry.About...
