ABOUT RICARDO ARCE PHOTOGRAPHY

Portrait Photographer based in Costa Rica. I just feel a deep curiosity about people with all their stories, emotions and feelings. I understand portrait photography as a vehicle to explore more about life and people, their learnings, their shadows and lights. When I have a camera in my hand I am an explorer and, as a explorer, sometimes I find the laughter and sometimes tears, sometimes light and sometimes darkness; when this happen, I try to take this as an opportunity to appreciate all things of life of it without judgments, all the tones and colors life give to us, because all what we live here has their beauty, their learning or their purpose. I use empathy as one of my key strengths in oder to build trust with people I work with. I try to build great portraits that reflects that trust and that insightful connection that you can build being empathetic, honest and transparent.
