*Fotografo

*Experto en vinos

*Apasionado viajero

*Amante de la Literatura


Nacido en Tzintzingareo, Michoacan, Mexico se traslado a Chicago en 1985. Su pasion por la fotografia comenzo hace siete anos cuando se aventuro en el mundo de las instantaneas en blanco y negro. No solo le interesan las personas, tambien la arquitectura y las escenas abstractas. Recientemente, decidio explorar el mundo de la tecnologia digital.

Sus obras incluyen temas tan variopintos como el vino, pies femeninos, personas leyendo, reflejos sobre el agua y ninos. Actualmente trabaja en dos proyectos diferentes: bailarinas y uvas. Su inspiracion proviene de su pasion por el vino, la musica y la danza.

Para Antonio Hernandez, la fotografia es "una forma de acercarnos al dia a dia a las cosas que damos por hechas. A travez del objetivo intento capturar, en milesimas de segundo, un instante, una emocion o la energia espiritual que emana de una persona o una cosa."

Del Arte dice: "La vida es una proceso de aprendizaje, la fotografia tambien."

Photography: We hardly ever describe in words what our eyes can see. One way, I think, is to try to take a photo of what we see through a lense of a camera. My way of seeing the world is what I see everyday, the little things we take forgranted. In a photograph I want to capture the essence ot that thing or person, the energy that is coming out of it. I tend to freeze a moment, the smile of a kid, the sadness of a woman, the happiness of a beggar, the lonliness of a thing or the mistery of the sky.


Life is a learning process, same thing with photography. In my years as a photographer I learned how to appreciate the places I travel to. I'm aware of the beauty of my surroundings, I take a second and look at everyday life. Once your eyes are trained, It is hard not to stop by and observe what catches my eyes.

I thank all my friends whom have supported my work for the last eight years. I'm looking forward to share all my travelings with you through images taken either by a minolta x700 35mm or by a digital camera.
