Winning photos

Beauty and lots of attitude in the same scene. A studio photoshoot using a rembrandt lighting scheme and side lighting to separate the model from the background and create more dimension and a better perspective.

70th Collection

A photoshoot with a casual urban street concept using a beauty dish from the side to generate contrasts in the skin and the shadows of the body obtaining more depth and relief in the scene.

70th Collection

An urban-street photo on a warm and slightly cloudy day, working with natural light and focusing on that attitude and posing of the model…

70th Collection

A brushstroke of great art, a studio photoshoot made using two side stripboxes to generate an outstanding light on the edges of the model and a beautiful butterfly-shaped dish to fill in the shadows just a little.

70th Collection

Sometimes a refreshing milk bath is healthy for the skin. LoL.
Wanting to reflect a rebel shot and portrait a fun message. Using flash off camera and high speed sync to freeze motion and droplets in midair.

69th Collection

One of my favorites. Pink on pink. A studio session concept, fashionable with a futuristic style that does not go easily unnoticed.

69th Collection

A picture with lots of character and attitude. No matter what they may say, just do it and go for it. Besides, a bath of nutella a year doesn't hurt.

69th Collection

A nice spring afternoon, taking advantage of the cloudy sky. Worked with natural light only and achieved a super fresh and attractive scene, using an 85mm 1.4 lens to achieve that spectacular bokeh.

69th Collection

A sunny afternoon session taking advantage of the intense light of the sun and working under the shade to achieve softer contrast and at the same time a more enveloping lighting.

69th Collection

Got hot??? A photoshoot with a lot of energy and character captured in high temperatures where the details do not go unnoticed…

68th Collection

Light is magic and if you combine it with colored gels you get an extraordinary result. Just like in this night out photo in the club while we enjoying a good time.

68th Collection

Some mermaids come to conquer all oceans. Being the bright sun one of the main characters of this perfect scene making it the perfect day to create this dramatic image.

68th Collection

Sometimes you just need everything to be simple and normal. An everyday scene on the street in pure natural light, taking advantage of the perfect setting.

68th Collection

The power of the kiwi.
A studio photoshoot with a fruity beautiful model and a soft light with an octabox and a reflector to create a soft contrast…

68th Collection

A natural-born beauty. A photo made with natural light and a small side flash to illuminate the model and give it even more prominence.

67th Collection

A very cool and tidy studio session, showing a lot of attitude and personality. Using two trim flashes for the edges and a beauty dish in the shape of a butterfy light as the main light.

67th Collection

In a tropical paradise. A magical place where the model and the photographer got together to get this radiant and very colorful shot. Achieving a rembrandt light, making good use of natural light.

67th Collection

Working on a cloudy day just with natural light and an 85mm lens. We were able to capture this scene where her sight gets your attention and the spectacular Bokeh, isolating the model from the background, hits your heart.

67th Collection

A hard teamwork to replicate a classic scene from the 80s DC comics of Harley Quinn.
Lighting set up for this scene were kind of struggling, we tried to get a little bit of night ambient light and fill the shadows with a side light while we walking in a dangerous area.

66th Collection

A little more of Pink, commemorating all the brave ones during October. Breast cancer awareness month. For all of them, we wanted to do this as a positive action and support to all women fighting against it.
