More about Juan S....

What do you love about your job?

What I love most about my job is the complete creative process. It's more than just capturing images; it's about the intricate journey of research, understanding the mood, style, and the intangible sensations we aim to capture. These elements are what bring a photograph or video to life, creating that spine-tingling effect. My goal is always to ensure that clients don't just love the final product, but also relish the process. I strive to make each session memorable, imbued with positive energy and creativity. For me, the greatest satisfaction comes from both achieving a stunning visual and knowing that the journey there was enjoyable and inspiring for the client.

What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?

In my portrait photography, the special touch comes from a blend of meticulous attention to aesthetics, perfection, and colors, paired with a deep understanding of each client. This approach fosters a trusting environment, encouraging clients to express themselves freely, which ultimately brings authenticity and a unique flair to every shoot.

Awards, honors, and recognitions received

I've never been particularly interested in pursuing awards or entering photography competitions. However, I have been nominated at numerous film festivals for my work as a director of photography on various projects. Despite these nominations, seeking that type of recognition has never been my focus. I'm more driven by the personal journey of improving and refining my craft, finding satisfaction in the growth and development of my skills and style over accolades.

A fun fact about this photographer

In my free time, I'm a DJ, and there's a funny thing about me when I'm on a photo shoot: you can always tell when I've captured a great shot. It's all in my smile - when I break into a grin, that's when you know I've taken THE photo! It's a spontaneous and genuine reaction that's become my signature indicator of a successful shot.
