Photography – San Diego

Sean Diaz is the name and photography is the game. Born and raised in San Diego I've experienced most of what Americas finest city has to offer and the best part of photography is getting to share those experiences with my viewers. I started shooting at a very young age trying to imitate my father who's also a photographer and have continued shooting ever since. I started as most, shooting film and then developing my exposures in a darkroom. It wasn't until the beginning of 2011 that I switched to digital and started shooting raw. I still prefer the look and feel of film; there's a lot to be said about an exposure developed by a photographer's own hands. My skill has improved, but I have continued to bring the same style and feel to each of my exposures. There are an endless amount of beautiful vistas in this world and an endless amount of photographers for each. With my work I try to separate myself from the rest by looking beyond the obvious shot for that truly unique exposure. The thing I love most about photography and what keeps me shooting is the constant hunt for that perfect exposure. Just like that perfect wave which every surfer dreams of, I want that one shot where every element comes together in my view finder harmoniously. Photography is about capturing moments and I love nothing more than the feeling I get when I release my shutter knowing that at that exact moment I've seen and captured something that no one else has ever or may never see again. My hobby has expanded this year to become a profession and I now shoot under the name SDProPho. My work can been seen at www.sdpropho.smugmug.com/ and followed on Facebook as well as www.sdpropho.tumblr.com/ I started SD ProPho with the aim to show the beauty in the simple things of life and hopefully creating a new respect for the world around us. The art of fixing a shadow has changed dramatically over the past century, but the power a photograph has to capture ones imagination or to tell a story has not. Let SD ProPho capture your next moment and I'll show you the world you've been missing. I appreciate your time and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy bringing it to you. “ Beauty can be seen in all things, seeing and composing the beauty is what separates the snapshot from the photograph.” – Matt Hardy WEBSITE: www.sdpropho.com
