Hi again!
Since I was a kid...
I grew up surrounded by cameras, video cameras, flashes, film and cassettes (yes, I'm a millennial and digital storage as we know it today didn't exist yet).
I had the opportunity to understand how analogue photography worked and to see its transition to digital photography.
My first camera was a Canon film camera that my dad gave me and whose model I don't remember, but what I do remember is that I loved taking pictures and taking them to be developed and then showing them to my friends.
Son of a photographer
My dad is Carlos Ramos, an excellent father and one of the first photographers in Huatulco.
As soon as I had the opportunity I started working with him as an assistant, helping him cover all kinds of events.
Sometimes I was in charge of the lighting, sometimes I shot the video, sometimes I was the second photographer, and sometimes I did a little bit of everything.
Nowadays we work together, but each one has his own style.
I'm grateful to him, because photography has definitely become the job I enjoy doing the most.
My secret
What has made me understand photography better has not been the technique, the theoretical knowledge, or the experience... but the feeling I get from seeing people sharing a special moment with their loved ones.
Once you understand that, you start to treat people as if they were your siblings, your parents or your friends, then you start to understand the real purpose of photography.
