Maria, local photographer in Tenerife

Style:

Timeless, natural and delicate. I use the light, the background and the feelings to tell part of the story of the character.

Likes:

In my free time I like swimming in the sea, hiking in the mountains and discovering new spots preferably with my camera and friends. Also just relaxing with some music, or a film with ice-cream.

Recommended places:

Tenerife is full of magic places, very different between them. From a light sand sunny beach to a dark sand beach down a cliff. Volcanic landscapes, western deserts full of cactus or a green foggy laurisilva forest. In less time than two hours you can go from 0 meters sea level till almost 4.000, so imagine the diversity you will find, and always with a lovely and particular natural light.
One of my favourite places in the island is Los Gigantes, amazing abrupt cliffs ending on a calm light blue sea, attached to a tinny white houses town with traditional construction. Very close in Puerto Santiago we find a lovely seashore, as in Alcalá, with nice beaches and natural pools.
