My Mom, My Muse, My Model ESP/ENG
There are things in life that just feel right, that flow without being forced. Photographing my mom in the clothes she sews herself is one of those things. It's not just a job; it's an excuse to sit down for a while, to talk, to tell stories while the sunlight streams through the window. There are no forced or rehearsed poses; it's just her, in the clothes she brings to life, and me, behind the camera, trying to capture the magic she has.
Hay cosas en la vida que se sienten correctas, que fluyen sin forzarlas. Fotear a mi mamá con la ropa que ella misma cose es una de esas vainas. No es solo un trabajo, es una excusa para sentarnos un rato, para hablar, para echar cuentos mientras la luz del sol se cuela por la ventana. No hay poses forzadas, ni poses estudiadas, es simplemente ella, con la ropa que le da vida, y yo, detrás de la cámara, intentando captar esa magia que tiene.
My mom doesn't just sew fabric; she creates art. In every seam, in every detail, there's a part of her soul. And the clothes aren't just for the body; they're for the spirit. The way she stands in front of the lens, with that confidence that her own creation gives her, is a reflection of her character, of her essence. It's not the clothes that make her beautiful; it's her that gives life to the clothes.
Y es que mi mamá no solo cose telas, ella crea arte. En cada costura, en cada detalle, hay una parte de su alma. Y la ropa no es solo para el cuerpo, es para el espíritu. La forma en la que ella se para frente al lente, con esa seguridad que le da su propia creación, es un reflejo de su carácter, de su esencia. No es la ropa lo que la hace bella, es ella la que le da vida a la ropa.
These photos, more than a job, are a gift. A gift for me, for my mom, for our story. Because they capture a moment, an emotion, a connection that only we understand. They are a reminder that beauty isn't in perfection, but in authenticity, in what is made with love, with passion, with the heart. And that, my friend, is priceless.
Estas fotos, más que un trabajo, son un regalo. Un regalo para mí, para mi mamá, para nuestra historia. Porque captan un momento, una emoción, una conexión que solo nosotros entendemos. Son un recordatorio de que la belleza no está en lo perfecto, sino en lo auténtico, en lo que se hace con amor, con pasión, con el corazón. Y eso, mi pana, no tiene precio.

That's the best kind of photography... You get to capture the emotions and essence of the person, and what a beautiful and meaningful way for a son and mother connection.
