Chicago in Pink – My First Photography Exhibition

It’s a true honor to share this news with you: I’m officially opened my first-ever photography exhibition, and I couldn’t be more proud that it’s happening here in Chicago, the city that welcomed me with open arms.

This show, titled “Chicago in Pink,” is not a typical display of cityscapes or urban photography. It’s a creative reinterpretation of Chicago through a digital artistic lens. Each photograph in the series captures an iconic or personal view of the city—but with a twist: I’ve digitally altered one element in every image, unifying them all under a single, vibrant color theme.That color is pink.

Why pink? I chose it intentionally. Pink doesn’t clash with the natural tones of the sky or trees—it softens, it highlights, and it creates a visual harmony that transforms the familiar into something fresh. For me, pink is also symbolic. Historically, it has carried shifting meanings—from strength to tenderness, from protest to celebration. In this project, it represents beauty, courage, and a touch of whimsy in a city known for its strength and character.

“Chicago in Pink” is not just photography; it’s photo art—a blend of traditional photography and digital intervention, where color becomes a storyteller.

Thank you for being part of this chapter in my journey. If you’re in Chicago, I hope you’ll come see the collection in person.

Fitness portraits by the Lake: A summer session with Steve in Chicago

Natural fitness portraits — Featuring Steve & his dog Jake

Last summer, I had the pleasure of photographing Steve, a man in his mid-50s who’s deeply committed to his fitness journey and overall well-being 🏋️‍♂️.

He asked me for simple, natural portraits taken outdoors near Chicago’s Lakeshore, where he could be shirtless and relaxed, showing his progress and physical transformation with authenticity — not through perfection, but through confidence.

The session had a laid-back vibe, capturing both portraits and lifestyle moments. In some shots, Steve is joined by his dog Jake, who also got a little spotlight with his own mini photo session 🐶📸.

These types of portraits are about documenting growth and personal pride — and doing so in a setting that feels safe, serene, and empowering.

📍Whether you’re into fitness, nature, or simply want to capture this chapter of your life, I’m available in Chicago and the U.S. for outdoor or lakeside photo sessions that celebrate you — just as you are.

📩 Let’s schedule your shoot

Authentic Portraits of a Barber: A Natural Photoshoot for Renzo at His Workplace

Portrait Session with Renzo — Master of the Fade

Meet Renzo — a talented barber who has given me some of the best Fade haircuts I’ve ever had ✂️. I had the pleasure of photographing him in his element, right inside the barbershop where his skills come to life.

Our goal was simple: natural, relaxed portraits that reflected his personality and craft — not overly posed, but still confident and professional.

Today, Renzo is based in Barcelona, offering top-notch haircuts and beard grooming. I’m glad to have captured this moment of his journey through my lens.

Summer Throuple Photoshoot — Celebrating Love and Diversity

A Natural, Casual Throuple Photoshoot in Santiago 🌞

In 2019, I had the chance to photograph something truly special in Santiago, Chile — a photo session with a throuple (a polyamorous relationship of three people), instead of a traditional 2 people couple.

We chose a casual summer morning for the shoot, with soft light and a relaxed mood. The goal was to capture their connection in a way that felt real, spontaneous, and intimate — avoiding overly posed or staged shots.

We focused on their natural chemistry, their daily interactions, and the joy they shared. Today, these three wonderful people live in Spain, but I’m honored to have documented that moment in their journey.

📍Based now in Chicago, I’m open to working with couples and throuples who want to capture their love stories in a natural, respectful, and creative way.

✨ Love comes in many shapes — and all of them are worth celebrating.
📩 Let’s talk about your photoshoot

Sesión de fotos a un throuple en Santiago, Chile

Estas fotos las tomé en 2019 en Santiago, Chile, a una relación de tres chicos (lo que se llama un “throuple”). Fue una sesión casual en verano, buscando capturar su conexión de manera natural y cotidiana, sin poses forzadas.

Hoy ellos viven en España, pero comparto estas fotos porque celebran el amor libre y diverso 🌈.

📍Ahora vivo en Chicago, y estoy disponible para sesiones similares con parejas o throuples.

LGBTQ+ Engagement Photos: A Natural, Romantic Session with Ricardo & Gerardo

My First Same-Sex Couple Photoshoot

As a visual storyteller, this engagement session with Ricardo and Gerardo was a meaningful milestone — my very first time photographing a same-sex couple 💫.

We shot this in a quiet park in Santiago, Chile, during the soft light of a morning, aiming for a calm and romantic atmosphere. The goal was to create natural moments — poses that felt real, not staged, and full of emotion.

Even though Ricardo and Gerardo are no longer together, I’m proud to share this session today. The result was visually beautiful, full of tenderness, connection, and light.

📍Now based in Chicago, I’m available for engagement and couple photography for all love stories — including LGBTQ+ couples across the U.S. If you’re looking for natural, intimate photos that tell your story, I’d love to work with you.

Professional Headshots for The Lanzaga’s Founding Team

In the early days of The Lanzaga, a South American restaurant in Chicago, I had the privilege of photographing the people who brought it to life — the chef, the host, and the barista. These weren’t just headshots. They were portraits infused with character, professionalism, and warmth ✨.

From the chef’s focus in the kitchen to the barista’s craft and the host’s welcoming vibe — my goal was to honor their roles and unique personalities through intentional, well-lit composition.

🎯 Why it matters: First impressions count. Authentic headshots don’t just present a face — they tell a story. Especially in hospitality, where human connection is everything.

I’ve been in Chicago, U.S.A. since September 2022, where I started a new chapter in my life

Desde Septiembre 2022 estoy ahora en la ciudad de Chicago, EEUU, donde empecé un nuevo capítulo en mi vida.

Si tienes fotos impresas (años 90s hacia atrás) te recomiendo escanearlas antes de que sea tarde. Las tintas de esa impresión pierden color con el tiempo (como las fotos que se van tornando rojizas) y no se puede recuperar. Escanealas al menos con 600 dpi/ppi y Guardalas en una nube (Google drive, Dropbox, i cloud, etc)
