The story of a photographer.


Hello there, everyone knows me as Maca!

I'm a Colombian who has lived in Philadelphia since 2020.

I like photography as long as I can remember, I feel that it is a way to free and express myself.

I started taking self-portraits for fun with cameras I found or borrowed me.

I love to play with color palette, light, props and imagination (of course sometimes with photoshop too).


I'm passionate about the portrait, I like to show the person standing in front of my lens the beauty that I see and that he or she doesn't see. We all have a beauty that the world needs to see. The mirror we see at home a lot of times isn't the same mirror others see in us.

I also see it as a way of self-knowledge, channeling and emotional expression.


“Artist.
Sometimes behind the camera, sometimes in front.
Sometimes make up artist too
But always an artist.”
