Hello, my name is Alberto Lopez Lopez. I am Mexican, but currently living in the USA. When I was eighteen years old, my mother bought me a small digital camera which I used all the time to take pictures of everything. At the age of twenty, I started studying journalism in Mexico, it was in that moment of my life in which I knew that I was born to photograph everything around me. When I moved to the USA, I bought my first DSLR and I started to learn photography by myself.
I should be chosen because I believe on what I can do. I believe I have the skills and the spirit to be a pro photographer. Being a multicultural and bilingual guy, makes me feel blessed and more secure on all the decisions I make.
Photography is my passion, photography is the other part of my life, It gives me happiness and satisfaction. Every time I look through the viewfinder, I find a different story to tell and share with others, I only need one opportunity to show it. My camera for me is my wife and my lens my daughter. All I want to do is photograph the beauty of this planet, and it would be perfect if I learn from the best, Nat Geo.
