It is the mixture between rigor, technical craftsmanship and talent, which makes Alexander Palacios a great photographer. He brings in unique figures and creative settings, which he combines and presents in a fresh and hip style. Fascinated by shapes and movements, Palacios tries to capture through the lenses the sensibility of people and places that surround him.
His works have taken him all over Europe, USA, and back to his native Peru. Besides shooting fashion editorials and advertising commissions, Palacios travels widely, working on personal fine-art projects.
