    Sofia Sebastian

    I was born in Madrid but I currently lives in Washington DC. I was first introduced to photography while watching classic movies as a teenager but went on to pursue a career in international relations. Starting in 2011 I began to focus in photography as an art form, but it was only recently that I discovered my passion for street and documentary photography.

    My work has been exhibited internationally in both solo and group shows. I received the first Female in Focus Award from 1854 Media in 2019 and have been a finalist in various street photography festivals, including Street Photo Milano in the category of emerging photographer, Street Photo San Francisco, and Aussie Street 2019.

    About The Collection…

    As someone raised in a big city, I am fascinated with the pace of everyday life. Trapped and competing for a space that I create, the characters on my stage are frequently engaged with something happening outside of the frame. There is energy but the commonality is a sense of drama, distress, and an embrace of the unknown.

    I like to experiment with different approaches. Sometimes I look for interesting light. Other times, I simply walk in search of new ideas and stories.

    Teemu Jarvinen is a finnish born street photographer who has spent a lot of time photographing the night, especially around asia. He first started traveling the world in 2014 as a digital nomad, which led him to many beautiful places and eventually pushed him into photography. He quickly got obsessed with it, starting as a landscape photographer but quickly switched to shooting the streets in a dark, often cyberpunk-esque style.

    About The Collection…

    This collection, “Winter in Japan”, was shot in northern Japan in the beginning of 2019. Usually street photographers are all over Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, but Hokkaido gets less attention which made me want to check it out and capture the scenes. I often went out late at night, not trying to capture people directly but rather the feeling of cold darkness. Eventually it became one of my favorite projects.

    Gerardo Alcaraz

    I was born in Alicante in 1973 and I have been photographing since I was 16 years old, with my first camera that I still have and use. Street photography is my biggest hobby.

    Shooting with film and digital without rules. I don’t have a project, I’m not looking for anything in particular. When I go out, I always carry a camera and photograph what I like or attract my attention.

    I am finalist of the 2020 MSPF and finalist of the 2021 ISPF.

    My goal is to enjoy photography and keep learning. It’s a long way

    About The Collection…

    This collection is made up of recent photos, from my last stage as a street photographer. These are disjointed photos, without pretending to show a series or project. Most of these photos are taken in Spain. In this small collection, we sometimes find humor, coincidences, compositions, or simply spontaneous moments from real life.
