with listening.
Here’s how that works.

Welcome, I'm Tomás.
I started out photographing the nightlife of San Francisco & Oakland. I love the raw energy of sound system culture, where people dance, celebrate and express themselves in a radically authentic way, and that’s what I still look for every time I film.
Today I make documentaries and people-first video, and I use what I know to help the community around me.
