About This Blog
Luis Gomez PhotosI am a freelance photographer and photojournalist who moved to Washington, D.C., in 2003 from Caracas, Venezuela. During my 15 years as a photographer, I have traveled the world collecting images for work and pleasure. I have taken photographs throughout the Americas, Europe and Australia, focusing on cityscapes and architecture as well as the simplicity of landscapes and people.
I studied architecture at the University of Tennessee and then returned to Venezuela to earn a B.A. degree in communications from Universidad Católica Andrés Bello in Caracas.
I was a photographer and photo editor for publishing companies while doing freelance work for local and international media outlets.
I was born to a Venezuelan mother and a Belize-American father, some of my earliest memories are of hurrying through airport terminals with a camera around my neck. I was raised in Brazil and Venezuela, and I am fluent in Spanish and proficient in Portuguese.
Washington, D.C.--I enjoy taking head shots, somehow they reveal a lot of a person, but they can also be tons of fun. I found this article on NPR with a wonderful gallery featuring some very creative head shots. These that are part of a book by Patrick Borelli and Douglas Gorestein called Holy Headshot! A Celebration of America's Undiscovered Talent.
