Abouttheauthor:My name is Guillem Lopez and I am a Spanish Portrait, Editorial and Travel photographer providing images to the Editorial and Commercial Markets. I have been shooting travel images around the World for the last 7 years as well as doing portraits and editorial work in the U.K, Spain, Italy and Poland..
if there is something I am certain of after the last seven years and all the countries I’ve visited is that what really inspires me to photograph are people and the stories behind them. I am now branching my work into more editorial and commercial projects. My style and approach is simple, true, bold and straight from camera where I try to apply my point of view gained after more than ten years traveling around the world.
