Photographers

For me, to photograph tango dancers is a way of dancing with the tangueras.

The camera lens is my partner, together we mingle among the embracing couples, trying to capture their elegance, passion and chemistry.

A silent observer, I am in constant admiration of this world that is revealed to me through gestures, glances and emotions made visible by faces focused on perfecting the tandas in unique and absolute ways.

Thank you for letting me be part of your story!

The camera lenses are my filter for the world around me. In tango, this filter has been a miraculous window towards the dancers’ souls.

Over the years, I developed a feel to sense by intuition to capture special moments, like emotions, passion and connection inside the dance-couples.

I’ve been dancing Tango Argentino since 2000 and I am also a portrait, wedding and event photographer in Dresden (Germany). These two passions combined bring a special harmony in my life. I adapt to any given situation and try to bring the beauty out that is already there. But I love focusing on details.

Milonga

The atmosphere of the Night Milongas is unmistakably one of the most magical in the marathon.

We dance until dawn on the beautiful tandas chosen by our already very appreciated TDJs.

Tango Cafe

Relaxing indoor day milongas, Tango Cafes are the perfect occasion to enjoy an after-lunch coffee in tango ambience, to dance and connect with each other.

Guerilla Milonga

It has always been one of the main attractions of our marathon: dancing outdoors, in the center of the city, with wonderful surroundings, beautiful weather (even if that means a magic summer rain sometimes) and, of course, tango music.

In Romania, the concept of Guerilla Milonga was introduced for the first time by Tango Brașov ®, in 2009 at the second edition of the international Argentine tango festival – Transylvania Tango Fest (TTF), in Brasov.
