The Photographer

Hi There,
I'm Adrian Ortega

I'm a junior in college with a passion for capturing both digital and analog memories. My journey began back in middle school when I first had full access to a phone. I was constantly recording moments with my friends, often capturing situations most people wouldn't even think to record. Before long, I became known around school as "the camera guy," and it wasn't uncommon to hear people say, "If Adrian didn't record it, it didn't happen." In high school, I had the chance to borrow my friend's Canon Rebel T7 and that moment changed everything. I instantly fell in love with the feel and power of a real camera. From there, I spiraled deep into the world of photography and videography. Though I couldn't afford my own camera at the time, I kept honing my skills using only my phone.

It wasn't until college that I was finally able to save up for a Sony camera which turned out to be one of the best investments I've ever made. As I kept shooting the first few months I eventually got the courage to create an instagram account @Albisa.photo which is a nod to my two names that being my middle name and first name (Albert is Adrian). When I'm not behind the lens, I'm diving into other creative outlets like 3D modeling, video editing, graphic design, and cinematography. I enjoy growing and refining my skills so feel free to email me or shoot me a message in Instagram I promise I don't bite!.
