Portrait specialist in Santafé. With over 20 years' experience, I create studio sessions and creative photo books for portraits, maternity and families, prioritizing naturalness and high-quality prints.
I’m Carlos Funes, a photographer with my own studio and a clear passion for portraiture. My work focuses on creating images that reflect who you are: intimate portraits, studio photo books and family or maternity sessions carried out with patience, careful light control and an artistic eye. As a portrait photographer in Santafé, I combine technical know-how and sensitivity so every photograph expresses authenticity and elegance. My approach starts from respect for the person in front of the camera. I like to build a warm, relaxed atmosphere in the studio so the most genuine gestures emerge without force. For portrait sessions and photo books I plan lighting, props and composition, but I always leave room for spontaneity: it’s those small glances and smiles that turn a photograph into an unforgettable memory. I work with families and expectant mothers because I believe every stage deserves careful treatment. In maternity shoots I seek the beauty of the moment; in family photography I aim to capture natural complicity; and in individual portraits I prioritise the gaze and emotion. Having a studio allows me to control every variable and offer unhurried sessions, with pauses and alternatives until we achieve the desired result. Post-production and presentation are an essential part of my craft: every image receives an artistic retouch that respects tones and textures, and I offer printed solutions because I believe a physical album or book transforms photographs into an object for a lifetime. Whether you want a personal portrait, a professional book, or a maternity or family session, my method is always the same: listening, planning and meticulous attention to finishing. If you value aesthetics, a calm atmosphere during the session and a photographer who cares as much about the capture as about the final print, I’d be delighted to meet you. In Santafé I work to turn your stories into portraits with soul, bringing the professionalism and sensitivity that define my career.
