Professional portraits in Palma with a fine art approach. Leonardo Cóndor creates intimate, minimalist black-and-white images that enhance each subject’s elegance and personality.
I’m Leonardo Cóndor, a photographer based in Palma whose work places portraiture at its core. Originally self-taught in Ecuador, I have developed a personal visual language that blends the sensitivity of drawing with photographic aesthetics: minimalism, symmetry, and a deliberate use of light and shadow to reveal form and emotion. Why choose my professional portraits? I understand portraiture as an encounter: it’s not just about capturing an image but conveying a presence, a story, and an attitude. I specialize in portrait photography with an artistic emphasis—seeking elegance and authenticity while helping even the most reserved clients feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera. My approach favors sober, timeless images, often in black and white, that emphasize the strength and beauty of the body and face. My working method is direct and humane. Before the session we talk to learn about your personality and expectations; during the photo shoot I improvise and guide gently, allowing each person’s expressiveness to surface. Playing with light and shadow, finding lines and volumes, and exploring unconventional points of view are part of my creative process. The result is portraits with visual impact: subtle, elegant, and with a distinctive gaze. Beyond professional portraiture, my author photographs (limited-edition prints) are available as unique pieces to decorate interiors or as distinguished gifts. These works reflect the same concern for aesthetics and purity of gesture that I apply to my portraits. I work from my studio in Palma, Mallorca, welcoming those who want a personal portrait as well as clients seeking a handcrafted photographic piece with soul. If you are looking for a portrait photographer in Palma with an artistic vision who is approachable and creative, I invite you to get in touch: I’m interested in capturing what makes you unique and turning it into an image that endures.
