Sometimes I feel disappointed with myself when I realize I could do much better.” To her, photography is an escape from reality and an aid to develop her creative way of seeing the world.

Seeing Luisa’s keenness in art, her parents made it a point to take her to art galleries and exhibitions every year in her summer vacations and fully supported her creative gift.
