Photojournalist and documentary photographer for 20 years in national and foreign media. Rafael is part of the Curatorial Council of the Museum of Journalism and Graphic Arts in Guadalajara. Humanism, depth, dialogue, and travel are the words that Rafael himself uses to describe the essence of his work, which he has developed since 1994 through photographic essays on various topics of the present day. For Rafael, the stories of those who have only their soul and their time are more transparent, and are lessons of life and dignity, a fact that reflects through daily but impressive portraits.
