He went on to study a master's degree in photography at the Centro Internacional de Fotografía y Cine (EFTI) in Madrid where he discovered contemporary photography, which changed the way he approached editorial work. After returning to Colombia, he began to make a name for himself as an editorial photographer, portraying all kinds of celebrities and working with renowned international magazines such as Vanity Fair UK, Bloomberg, Getty Images, Esquire México, and El País (Spain). He later became a director of photography at the renowned magazine Esquire Colombia.
