About me
Bio
Hi, I’m Cristian, an IT professional with a deep passion for capturing the beauty of the world through my lens. Originally from Costa Rica and now based in California, I’ve spent over seven years traveling and photographing some of the most stunning landscapes imaginable.
My journey in photography is a reflection of my love for exploration and adventure. Unlike many who stop searching after finding their passion, I continue to seek new experiences and learn new skills, always striving to create my best life and, ultimately, my masterpiece. My photography isn’t just a hobby—it’s a way for me to connect with nature, capture its essence, and share those moments with others. Whether it’s the serene beauty of a misty morning or the vibrant colors of a sunset, each shot is a piece of the world seen through my unique perspective.
I’m constantly pushing myself to grow, both in my IT career and in my artistic pursuits, embracing the journey and every opportunity it brings to learn and evolve.
Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures

A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective.
- Irving Penn -
Photography is not about cameras, gadgets and gizmos. Photography is about photographers. A camera didn’t make a great picture any more than a typewriter wrote a great novel.

Chasing the frame whats photography about?
The word landscape was first used by the early painters and represented natural sceneries. Today the understanding of landscape photography is much broader and difficult to define.
If you ask someone to define landscape photography, you will probably get as many answers as the number of people you ask. The definition of landscapes has evolved over time. Originally from the earlier landscape photographers it was defined as photos of the wilderness with no human influence.
With a good landscape photo, the photographer wants to convey a certain feeling or mood to the viewer, in another words we want to transport the viewer to the same spot we stood and took that picture and live that moment the same way we did, it should be call magic as the imagination of colors, shades and contrast depends of the artist, the photographer!
