Header Photo: Jorge Moreno

Words from Jorge, the self taught photography addict: "My photography leans towards portraits which are intimate and personal. I believe people make the best subjects, yet I try to give that intimacy to any subject I shoot. I use photography as a means of self-expression – I make pictures for myself, to identify with hidden qualities of my character, to better understand my reality, to express my interpretation of the world around me, and to interact with people I would otherwise not be able to engage with. My goal is to use my camera like Alice’s rabbit hole, to open an unexplored world, a place of curious self-expression, but also a world of new relationships, new experiences and most importantly new stories. My work is passionate, expresses intense feeling, and it is spunky, full of liveliness. When people see my work I would like them to feel a connection with the subject."
