many people take advantage of coming to the
tedh talk to confess something that is not
they have never dared to say in public
there are people who have come to a
scenario like this and they said I’m gay
or have said that you can fly
I am not gay yet nor have I learned to
fly but I do want to confess something
that I have never said publicly
I am a witch as it sounds
I am a witch and you also know who is
he calls them witches have been called
sorcerers in history to platón a
Pythagoras including Joan of Arc
the definition of magic is to get
something the art of getting something that has
inexplicable results or out of
the natural laws
by that rule of three anyone
hence I have done something with a
result I did not expect
it can be a luxury does we start does
three years ago I was behind that
curtain
that is my house the window of my house and
what is in the background is that it was read
it was believe and machek believes in magic and
the letters were totally fallen and
I was hiding behind that
curtain while the bell rang one and
again and I did not dare open the
door did not have money for rent
and in my landlord who came to ask me that
money
those kuri
from that black curtain reminded me of
childhood and how it grew in a
room with that red light because my
father had a quarter lab
dark where I grew up read by the
nights thousands of stories and one of them
He was the one who inspired me
somehow be here today the
astrology is amazing as an arts
or something that supposedly people use
to predict the future in the newspaper
on Sundays can also be a
psychological study of the person who
can somehow tell you that
talent has someone and I said is
Of course I want to be an astrologer. I want
know how to discover the talent of the
people and how to find out as soon as possible
so that people do not lose their whole lives
not knowing what to do and I went to my
parents and astrologer tells them the face of
my father you can imagine waves and my
mother that is here or you can
imagine they did not imagine their cute
daughter of 12 years being the witch lola of
two in the morning of television
that was not an option for my future
obviously life and education is
Fucked because I ended up studying
law
I went to law school I went to
sevilla and good the goat shoots to the mount
says a famous photographer that I admire
a lot
the artist the artist always finds
one way and while I was in
sevilla ni piso was filled with artists
filled with writers painters and while
I was on the floor full of paint
looking at the walls and saying how
I can paint all the constellations
of the universe in these walls they looked
That’s what he said, but what the fuck are you doing?
said that what you do in right and
obviously good when they wanted us
that way that who does not teach us
to break the letters teach us to go on
against what they tell us or expect
about us and maybe six years in
decide
they wanted to do in leaving the right and
say I want to tell stories
I want to tell stories and I want to tell
those with a very nice camera
up there everything was fine but I had
studied law did not have any type
of education I did not know how to handle
a camera but it’s a magic or something that
you feel inside and I do not know how I do not know about
what a way but I’m going to get that
the moment you decide within yourself
very inside that you want to do something with
Your whole heart is like I do not know if it has
happened once they heard it the
PNL talk imagine saying
you want to buy a car and decide the
model
I want a red volkswagen a beetle
red and suddenly the next day
start to know red volkswagen by
all sites and magically be the
day before you say but the day before
the cars were not there
totally in front of you but you do not
you knew what you wanted the moment
you put a destination or a place where
do you want to go
and you know inside you what you want
do what they say or the universe is
conspire to help you get it
magically with series
well this picture came before
magically I got weddings
I am a very romantic person and I wanted
tell love stories and now it ‘s that
I did quite well and in a certain way
I did a little bit what the clients
they asked that I had to pay the rent
and did what the clients said or
it was good for it to get that
money my sentimental life at the same
time my soul was not going well
twin or I thought it was my
soulmate
he thought it was better two twin souls
that one and no no no no I was not satisfied
everything when you have a mismatch
loving when it breaks your heart of
that way
you cry primers shreds nothing has
meaning and I being weddings that shit and
this how can it happen and how do I
I face this and I’m doing
things that I do not want and
this can not be me I think the
difference and for me it has been a point
of inflection in my life
the difference was that he had started
to take pictures with with the iphone and
I followed many people who
they loved new york on instagram and
one night I had planned a trip to
mexico with my ex
to celebrate my birthday that no longer
it was going to happen and he says he could do
change this and I can do so that that
my birthday
I’m not crying for the corners like
I’m now and well, I’ll call you
emails bomb and send an email bomb to
one of my instagram friends and I told him
that I am torn apart crying done
shit and I think the only thing that can
make smile in the world world is
spend the day of my birthday in new
york
you have a sofa and he told me that if I do not
knew in person so he does in
new york two weeks with which gives a
extra and photographs and with many others
street photography I learned them by
first time to fall in love with the
photograph of a photograph that was
only for me because it was a
therapy for it cure me to feel
all right
it was as if life was ahead and
I just simply had to
I pass the light all life
I was ahead and I just
I had to photograph it
I found myself photographing women
women who knew what they wanted
woman in women who broke rules
women who knew what they wanted and and
in that moment super excited I decided
I want to do only black and white and
I returned home that I am at home
that people did not think the pocket of
people associated love with color and
for me love is black and white in
black and white because I do not get a love
that lasts only two months or lasts three
months as a fashion for a clothes that you
you put in but for me love is
timeless
last not only life but many
many lives and it cost me a lot in
that moment behind that curtain
decide if he still believed in that or
started through making that color
I lost my clients came my
first clients that he left me that
freedom to be creative to tell
to be able to express myself in some way
something that I already had very very inside of me
and that I knew it was true they arrived
more customers and some more
many I do not do many clients either
I do not do many weddings a year but what
yes I realized it was that every time
much more sincere and much more honest
that promise he had made to me
same time when life gives you a
gift like that
finally knowing what you want to do
even for a while I can change
but when he gives you such a gift
important as that
unconsciously life asks you
to share it began to arrive the
awards began to arrive
conferences all over the world and
I really did not know what to say
he had simply been faithful to what
I had inside me
to that magic that told me I had to
do something against all odds
no matter what form he had
do what
He started by saying that the witch
one of the things that I like most about me
work right now is to help my
students teach them photography by
means of values but above all it is
to be honest with yourself and me
I use the tarot used the tarot for
break somehow blocking my
students when they photograph with the
heart and without any mask his
photography is exactly the portrait of
your soul and for me
The photographs of my students are
military or I read through those
photographs in some magical way or
no or psychological or as
studies with whatever I do not know why
but somehow when you take off
that mask and I put those students
outside of your comfort zone interests you to
photographing things that do not wait
they really photograph what they have
inside and that does give you a lot of clues
why his career or his life is not
advancing as some example of this
photo for example a girl inside a
showcase
if a student brings me a picture like that and I’m going
to say how long how cheap you
you’re going to sell to get that fame
is there
you just have to know how to see what
is that to know how to read it
how many people will listen to tell you
what you have to do
keep going with what you have inside or
you have to suffer so much and keep
pigeonholed what they expect from you
these photos the elegies of two days
for the presentation and I never had
analyzed my photos these photos the
take in new york
on that trip I was just feeling everything
what are those pictures saying
when there is no barrier
It really is your heart that speaks and
it’s something inside you that reflects
in that work that you do when you make a
I work simply because someone tells you
asks for deliveries 20 percent but if
you have a because if you do it with a
reason deliveries 8 thousand percent and that
is what I do every day both in
my lectures like at weddings with
my couples
that’s what I do every day with
the students I want that seed of
excellence of setu himself but shines
it shines a lot and I’m going to end up with
this picture
this is my house my window now the
letters are back in place and c
I believe in magic and I invite you all
you to decide
you want to stay behind the curtain
or you want to go out there to open that door
as I opened it
start to feel that magic and
