About me

Welcome to my website. I am Leonardo, a freelance photographer originally from California, but currently living in Flagstaff, Arizona. Making my way into the photography industry. My journey into photography began after I began observing my surroundings and other people's interpretations captured through their cameras. Being exposed to the perspectives of other photographers in their work helped me form a new perspective on this industry and motivated me to get involved. Through my journey as a photographer, I have learned the importance of storytelling so people can learn new perspectives and ways of seeing the world. My photographic focus does not lie in any type of photography, because I enjoy the diversity of stories that can be told through pictures, including portraits, events, food photography, among others. As I always said, there is too much beauty in this world to only see it through one particular lens.

As a photographer, my work stems not only from my love for photography but also from my desire to discover the true essence of my clients through expressions and emotions and use that as a starting point for my work. 

My primary focus on photo portraits is to show as much of the essence of my clients as possible through my photographs. Therefore, for me, photography is more than just a pose you must follow to make someone look pretty. It's about finding the true essence of my clients and capturing their true personalities and emotions beyond the traditional poses, to create a composition that will meld with the surroundings to tell their story.

This is how I see my work, as the narrator telling the story of my clients through images that transcend beyond the traditional composition to tell their stories.
