Fine art photographer and oil painter based in Vancouver BC. Juan was educated as an Electrical Engineer and in late 2008, he made a decision to pursue his passion for the fine art world and started formal studies at Emily Carr University and extended his art vision attending the photography program at the Langara College.
As an artistic photographer, I live pursuing THE image that satisfies my passion for visually communicating emotions, stories, and photographic processes. I embody them in the five paths of my artistic vision: Motion Trail, Cityscape, People, and abstract images from Shapes and Forms found in streets and nature
As a Commercial Photographer, I create exceptional photographic documentation of performing arts specialized in onsite photography of contemporary dance in low light conditions. I create high quality and artistic images of live performance in low light conditions. We are specialized in onsite photography of traditional and contemporary dance. I capture the emotions that artists emote in their performance and captivates in images the expression of their faces, and the message they express with their movements.
