About
Renato Paz who, although has had a long passion for image, has elected author photography as his favorite art, form of expression for the past 6 years.
Long fascinated by images as an observer, feels that photography inspires him to capture specific images, thus the reason he embraced photography as his art of choice for documenting and expressing emotions.
Besides the technical aspect of photography, his main references revolve around all the visual culture he absorbs, most of the time in other types of art rather than photography, but always keeping something as natural as his own experiences. That’s the identity behind the camera and that’s the reason why he shoots photographs.
Not having a favorite photography category, he enhances creative images development, such as publicity photography, as a way of applying all the technical and practical knowledge he acquired, along with his imagination.
Right now, Renato explores the most diverse photography categories, placing his identity in each one of them and promotes his works on exhibitions or publications.
