Welcome to my world of photography!
I am Alejandro
a seasoned photographer originally from Mexico City, now proudly based in the vibrant atmosphere of Washington, DC. With over 30 years of professional experience behind the lens, I've had the privilege of capturing life's most precious moments across a diverse range of specialties.
What Drives Me
I've always been fascinated by the stories that can be told through photography, especially my experience in sports photography that has trained me to capture unforgettable moments of life, which I have been able to adapt to all kinds of photos. This is my passion, and I greatly enjoy sharing my vision with every client and friend who allows me to capture important moments in their lives.
Family Photography
Since 2001, I've been dedicated to crafting timeless family portraits, blending various styles and formats to reflect the unique essence of each family I have the pleasure of photographing.
Sports Photography
My journey in sports photography began in 1992, where I found myself as the official photographer for the Mexican Triathlon Federation. Over the years, I've covered more than 250 triathlons and International IRONMAN competitions, along with a myriad of other exhilarating sporting events. From the World Triathlon in New Zealand to the Pan-American Games in Rio de Janeiro, my lens has captured the energy and spirit of athletic excellence across the globe.
Weddings and Other Events
In 2007, I embarked on a new chapter, leading a talented team to document over 40 unforgettable weddings. Beyond weddings, my portfolio includes religious ceremonies, family reunions, and formal business events, each moment cherished and immortalized through the art of photography.
Real Estate - Residential
When it comes to real estate, I've recently discovered a passion for photographing the beautiful homes in DC, Virginia, and Maryland. Families have entrusted me with the task of capturing the beautiful angles that highlight the beauty and warmth of the homes they have created. These images serve various purposes, whether it's for selling, renting, attracting potential clients more quickly, or creating a magazine-style visual memory of the beauty and warmth of their homes, reminiscent of Home and Garden publications.
Travel and Culture
My passion for photography extends beyond borders, as I've ventured to over 200 cities across 28 countries, capturing the rich tapestry of global culture and heritage. In 2011, I was honored to be selected by the Mexican Secretariat of Culture for a special cultural promotion project, showcasing the enchanting "Pueblos Mágicos" of Mexico through my lens.
Published Works
My photographs have graced the pages of renowned sports magazines such as Runners World, Triathlete Magazine Australia, and Red Bulletin UK, among others, spanning audiences across the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, Brazil, Canada, and Mexico. Join me on a visual journey through life's most captivating moments, where every click of the shutter tells a story, and every frame preserves a memory.
