Professional Chicago Based Photographer | Cesar Augusto

chicago based photographer Professional Chicago Based Photographer | Cesar Augusto pictures

“I was born in 1969 in Havana, Cuba and began making photographs as a child. My father, a professional photographer, brought me to shoots and the darkroom, teaching me every aspect of the process of making a photograph…..

Although my work was recognized in my homeland, it was also censored by the totalitarian regime there. Under the guise of post-graduate work, I was allowed to travel to Moscow but I defected during a layover in Ireland.

I began working as a News Photographer for Telemundo Network in Chicago in 1995. After covering news stories for three years, I had the opportunity to manage various advertising agencies in Chicago. I cultivated relationships with clients for whom I continue to work as an independent photographer and videographer, as I simultaneously develop my artistic portfolio.

I continue to photograph everything around me hoping to communicate my vision to those who like my work.

Eddie Quinones – Chicago based editorial photographer

“Eddie is an editorial and commercial photographer based out of Chicago specializing in documentary photography. He studied International Relations at Ohio State University as an undergraduate and later photojournalism at the University of Missouri.

When he’s not busy making pictures he’s satisfying his wicked sweet tooth, his addiction to coffee or listening to talk radio of all kinds. Sometimes he’s doing all three at once.

Eddie is available for freelance assignments around the globe.”

Assignment Chicago – Tribune Photojournalist Alex Garcia

Chicago Tribune Photojournalist Alex Garica

“I have a new photo blog at chicagotribune.com with the name “assignment chicago“. It’s been up for a couple weeks. I share photos, outtakes, stories and Tuesday Tips, a weekly feature on picture-taking.”

To introduce myself, I’m a Chicago photographer with twenty years professional experience, having come to the Chicago Tribune, from the Los Angeles Times.  I’ve also worked at the Long Beach Press-Telegram and the Palm Beach Post. I’ve been to several counties, states, countries and continents on assignment, but the most rewarding usually have been those taken in my local area, since they relate and resonate to my daily life.

About my credentials…I’ve been a fortunate recipient of several awards, including a shared Pulitzer Prize with the staff for coverage of gridlock at O’Hare Airport, a 1st Place from the World Press Photo contest in Amsterdam, and the title of Illinois Photographer of the Year.  I’ve been published in several books, including A Day in the Life of the U.S. Armed Forces, America at Home and America 24/7. I’ve also given workshops on lighting, portraiture, and my documentary work.  I speak to groups frequently about life as a photojournalist or photo tips from a professional photographer.

I plan to update the photo blog at least 3 times a week, MWF -  enough to keep things interesting. On Tuesdays, I’ve started a regular feature called “Tuesday Tips”, where I talk about tips and thoughts about photography/photojournalism

Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoy the photo blog. Please link to it whenever you get the chance.

Cheers,

Alex Garcia
