I look for the perfect portrait and the perfect smile: that fleeting moment which, when you try to hold onto it, often slips away. From my studio in Algeciras I dedicate myself to professional portrait photography with a documentary gaze — prioritizing each person's authenticity over rigid poses — to deliver images that work both for personal projects and professional profiles. Why choose me: my work is born from observation and patience. I have developed a direct and sensitive style that values connection with the person in front of the camera. My portraits aim to convey personality and naturalness: a genuine expression, a relaxed posture, lighting that flatters without artifices. This approach comes from years of covering concerts, exhibitions and local projects: learning to read moments and emotions is the foundation of my portrait photography. How I work: I prepare every session with the individual in mind. We start with a pre-session conversation to understand how the images will be used (profile, CV, social media or a personal project) and the references that represent you. In the studio —or at nearby locations if you prefer a more personal setting— I create a calm, conversational atmosphere so the camera becomes an excuse rather than a barrier. During the session I give simple guidance and search for spontaneous moments; afterwards I perform careful editing that respects the naturalness of the portrait while maintaining visual impact. What I offer: professional portraits with a documentary perspective, focused on highlighting each person's authenticity. My experience in events and exhibitions across Algeciras has taught me to capture emotion in real contexts, a value I transfer to individual sessions. Many of my images are part of local projects and exhibitions, bringing an artistic perspective to professional portraiture. If you’re looking for a portrait that truly says who you are —for your CV, LinkedIn or to keep as a memory— at samuelfoto.es you’ll find technical sensitivity, a warm, personal approach and the pursuit of the smile and the moment that make portraits unique.
