Judges

Jorge Alcalá Goded, Ritrae Studio, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

I was born in San Miguel de Allende and always had a great passion for photography. I studied and worked with some of the best photographers in Guanajuato, and thanks to that I was able to expand my knowledge. For several years I worked as a wedding photographer between Quintana Roo and the Island of Saint Lucia, until I decided to return to my town and continue working on what I am most passionate about!
Currently I have my own photography company focused mainly on weddings. My style is known for being natural and spontaneous obviously with a unique artistic touch.
