Yago de Miguel - People and portrait photography

Yago de Miguel is a passionate Spanish photographer specialising in portraiture. Self-taught, he first experimented with artificial light before focusing on working with daylight. This choice has naturally enriched his images and given them a special authenticity.

Having always had a passion for drawing and painting, Yago found photography to be a faster and more satisfying way to realise his artistic visions. This passion allows him to express himself creatively outside of his professional environment.

Yago is a man of many talents. His professional background includes work as an economist, lawyer, pilot, marketing specialist and architect. This diversity is reflected in his sources of inspiration: literature, film (especially the classics), painting, sculpture, illustration, advertising and music all influence his photographic work.

His unique perspective, his ability to make the most of natural light and his originality make Yago's photographs particularly expressive. He is able to authentically capture the essence and beauty of people, while at the same time creating an artistic, often humorous depth that makes his images unmistakable.

The likeable and modest photographer writes about himself: "Admittedly, I'm not an expert in the field of photography and I didn't learn from a famous photographer. Ideas often come unconsciously from previous experiences and observations, so I'm not sure I'm really creative". Nevertheless, the creative process is crucial to him. Thinking in terms of images, pre-production, realization and post-processing are always a wonderful challenge for Yago to master and one that he loves.

10Photos says: Even if Yago is insecure, we know for sure that this photographer is more than creative. His often humorous images inspire, make us smile or even laugh out loud. His portraits are refreshingly different. But it's not just the fun images that appeal, his sensual work is just as inspiring. Here, too, he surprises us with his ideas, with his sometimes unusual but always outstanding photos. We are amused, impressed and sensually aroused at the same time. A rare combination. Yago's portraits convince us at the highest level.
