Since Ramuel was in elementary school, he has been taking pictures. He started using disposable film cameras to capture moments of family life. Then bought his first digital point in high school. Until he finally could purchase his first DSLR in college. From there, his friends took notice of his artistic eye and began to request photo taken of them by him. Since then, he's been experimenting with lighting techniques, playing with equipment, and learning as much as he can about the art form he loves.

Photographer

How did you get started with photography

In 2011, I got started with photography using an entry level DSLR, it was my sister’s gift. I was shooting just for my hobby. I would go out with my camera every day and photograph cool things that I came across in the street, like plants, objects, and my photographer friends. I could develop my skills as soon as I moved to NY in 2014, when I used to work as "Executive Assistant" in a Staten Island office. My husband is a professional photographer and film maker, so he taught me how to shoot and retouch pictures with Lightroom. In 2016, I finally left my office work to dedicate myself fulltime to photography.

What do you love about your job?

I love touching souls with my art. Taking pictures is a true passion for me and always will be.

What are some of your favorite places in New York City to take photographs?

My favorite places to shoot portraits in New York are Dumbo in Brooklyn (between the bridges), Central Park, Grand Central and SoHo.
