Photographer Javier Cuevas (Spain)
Tell us something about yourself
I love life: people, music, comics and novels, theatre,
films, TV series, photography, drawings history...I need
48 h/day at least!!!
How and when did you get into photography?
Four Years ago I started to work on photography,
taking references with models for my drawings. Then
it became stronger inside me the love for
photography itself.
What does photography mean to you?
Sometimes a lot of work to be done, sometimes the
most beautiful feelings inside my heart.
It´s the perfect way to understand human life and
natural life on earth as they are, the perfect way to
become better than yesterday, to evolve as better
persons understanding our place in the world.
Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid
professional? Hobbyist at this moment.
Please briefly describe your photography style for
our readers.
I like natural shootings when I work with models. As
fresh as they can be. At the same time I love to
capture street real moments on life, so I would say
that to capture life and beauty on this world is the
most important thing to me.
Where do you get inspiration from?
Whatever: a face, an expression, the work of
different models and photographers...
Think you in advance what you want in the picture?
Normally it´s like that, but I like to create a free
space for collaboration when I work with more
people, so we can create something different and
creative.
Studio, on location or both?
It depends about the proyect. I enjoy both of them,
but I take location if I can choose.
