This month, we got to know a woman that does it all – Veronica Neira. The creatively curious Veronica is a professional photographer, social media manager and visual content creator, copywriter, graphic designer and videographer who specialised in Fashion Photography in Madrid, Spain.
Name three things you never leave the house without.
My blessings, my camera and my phone.
What’s the best advice you have ever received?
I have received tons of great advice, but one that I find very original is this one:
Suricate! – Just one word that meant a lot. Meerkat or Suricate are little desert mammals whose survival depends on being in a state of constant awareness, a kind reminder as I sometimes live in my own world.
Which song is guaranteed to make you get up and dance?
Even though I don’t know Hindi, there is this song that always makes me feel like moving my bones crazy – Manali Trance by The Shaukeens.
What’s your favourite movie of all time and why?
Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind. It is a beautiful film with a philosophical meaning behind it. Our negative experiences are just as important as the positive ones, we need them to grow.
What’s the scariest thing you’ve ever done?
Oh my! Little boat adventure expedition turned near-death experience in the Gulf of Fonseca, Nicaragua. A terrible storm caught us, there were lightning strikes happening near us, the waves were tall. When we finally returned the whole town was waving happy and clapping as they all also thought we were not coming back.
What is your greatest aspiration?
To become an internationally recognized photographer.
When cooking, what’s your signature dish?
Pasta Bolognese – simple to make but after doing it so many times I have mastered it.
What would your life be incomplete without?
My Parents.
