"Ibarionex shared how he has used sensibility creating street photography to his documentary work. This included long-term projects on caring for his elderly mother-in-law and documenting the morning routines of young families. He demonstrated how the careful consideration of the frame for his street photography compositions helped him to create stronger and more intimate images even when photographing in more confined and limited spaces. He explained how is journaling allowed him to learn and analyze his photographic process. It resulted in him being able to identify his strengths and weaknesses as well as lead him down a path to develop his eye and personal projects." He mentioned an online tool for journaling...an app called Day One...see link below https://dayoneapp.com Ibarionex currently has a series of conceptual photographs on exhibit at A Noise Within Repetory Theater in Pasadena.
