We did this project a few years ago. With this makeup, La Catrina looks a little scarier than usual; in fact, I feel like this version is more in line with Halloween than with the Day of the Dead, which,

I’d been traveling to Guadalajara for over 12 years, and until now I’d never visited Zapopan. I usually wandered around Guadalajara’s historic center, which seemed to go on forever; on every visit, I’d

I remember that when I started this session, I began having problems with the flash; there was no way I could get it to fire. It just so happened that I had dropped mine, and someone borrowed me one, but

I remember that many years ago, when I was working for a photographer (at that time, I was editing photos or creating photo animations), he would always select some photos to convert to black and white

I met Hector through social media. I saw the self-portraits he was creating, and I was really interested in the way he developed his concepts, so I suggested taking some photos of him. It was the first

Charli is an older dog who has been with Karen his whole life. In recent days, he’s needed special care. We have to help him eat, assist him with getting up from time to time, and we recently had to remove

In September, several Latin American nations celebrate their independence days; in fact, many of them celebrate on September 15. In Mexico, in particular, you can enjoy a burst of color everywhere throughout

I’m not one of those people who “fear the dead,” as my grandfather would say; it’s the living you should be afraid of. To be honest, I never thought I’d find myself in a cemetery at night taking photos.

The first of these photos is one of my favorite pieces of work. When I took it, I was just someone interested in photography, and to be honest, I never thought I’d devote myself entirely to it. It’s not

Alex wanted to enter a catrín contest, so he came to us and asked Karen to do his makeup. It really turned out great, so I took the opportunity to take some portraits of him. Everything was a bit rushed

I've never been as dependent on coffee as so many other people; I like it and enjoy it, but it's not something I miss. That's why when I left my home country (Cuba), it wasn't hard for me to stop drinking

We invited Betty to participate in these Catrina photo shoots, and she was immediately interested. She personally chose the makeup design and made the costume herself. The flower crown and the makeup in

She arrived very shy, or at least that's what we thought, as if she didn't want to have her picture taken, but as soon as she was given instructions, she posed like a experienced model, a little unsure

On this occasion, these images are from a “catrin” photo shoot, for which Angel, who was my student a few years ago, served as my model. I didn’t teach him anything about photography, since I’m a chemist

Here are some other images in which I use the egg as the central figure. They don’t really constitute a series; they’re just individual photos in which I try to depict different concepts or ideas. Technical

The image of the egg has always intrigued me deeply. We can interpret it as a vessel for life and hope, but at the same time, it can be seen as something that limits (with its shell) everything inside

I hope you aren't getting bored of seeing these Catrina portraits I've been sharing with you. A few years ago, I started doing this kind of work, and every season I add new ones, so it has become quite

A few years ago, I didn't shave for about a year just to take some self-portraits. I didn't think it would be so uncomfortable to grow such a beard. I usually keep my hair long, and in a way I'm already

The catrin is much less known than the catrina, and to be honest, it’s usually much less colorful than the catrina. In this case, the intention wasn’t exactly to depict a Catrin, but rather a sort of drag

Hector is a person with artistic talents and interests; he has a natural aptitude for modeling and also designs his own clothes. This was the first photo shoot we did together, and as soon as he saw the
