PortraitMariaFernanda-1.jpg

Born and raised in Mexico City (one of the largest cities in the world) she holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration in Tourism and Hospitality Management. Since she was a young girl she has had a passion for being in water. While in high school, she was a swimmer for the regional team. Whenever she had any spare time, she would escape to the beach and enjoy surfing. Her other passion for photography started when she finished high school, taking many beautiful pictures around her hometown of Mexico City. After graduating from college, she traveled to Hawaii where learned to combine her love of surfing with her passion for photography and began shooting pictures of surfers in the water wherever she goes.

Nació y creció en la ciudad de México (una de las ciudades mas grandes del mundo), donde estudió Administración de Empresas Turisticas. Desde pequeña a tenido una pasión por estar en el agua. Durante varios años estuvo nadando para el equipo estatal. Cada vez que tenía oportunidad ella se escapaba a alguna playa y disfrutaba del surf. Su otra pasión, la fotografía, surgió cuando terminó la preparatotria, practicandola y desarollandola; tomando fotos al rededor de su ciudad, México, Distrito Federal. Despues de graduarse de la universidad, viajo a Hawaii donde aprendió a combinar su fascinación por el surf y su pasión por la fotografia empezando así a tomar fotos de los surfistas desde el agua, a donde sea que viaje.
