Fifteen years ago, I embarked on a journey to New York City, a city of dreams and opportunities. Here, I had the privilege of working with top models, celebrities, prestigious fashion brands, and international magazines.
My path was not straightforward; it was a journey of starting from scratch in an unfamiliar city, learning through hard work and numerous mistakes—mistakes that I can help you avoid.
Like you, I have always dreamed of becoming a professional photographer.

I grew up in San Luis Rio, Colorado, in Sonora, a small town north of Mexico. As a good small-town boy, I dreamed of living in a metropolitan city like Mexico City, Paris, or New York.
I remember leafing through my grandmother's weekly magazines, specifically Vanidades, a magazine she bought religiously every month. I also remember growing up admiring the photographs of Ricardo Trabulsi and Enrique Covarrubias in CinePremiere magazine.
I liked their work so much that something called me to meet them in person. I wanted to know how they had managed to get to where they were, work with the personalities they worked with, and take such beautiful images like them.
I have a feeling that our stories may be very similar.

So, one summer, I decided to travel to Mexico City and take a photography class with one of them.
Meeting him in person was a life-changing experience because it humanized my image of him, and the possibility of becoming a fashion photographer became tangible.
It made me realize I could also become that vision. And that's what I want to show you today:
If I could turn my dream into a reality, so can you. And not just that, I believe you have the potential to surpass me!
I invite you to witness how I do things from start to finish so that you can see how much can be done with little.
Don't be limited by the resources you have. I've learned that the most important tools in photography are your vision, your eye for detail, and your creativity. These are the things that genuinely make an extraordinary image.
That is why, through this Masterclass in Fashion Photography, Workshops and 1:1 Tutoring, I want to show you that nothing is impossible and that you can achieve everything you set out to do if you do it with love and passion.
You only need an idea or a concept, and you can follow the steps and tips I teach in this masterclass as a guide when creating your photos.
Whether you do it online or come in person to New York City for one of my upcoming Workshops, I want to immerse you, guide you, and teach you everything I know so that you can embark on this new creative adventure of becoming the photographer you've dreamed of becoming.
