More about Juan Miguel S....
What do you love about your job?
I love bringing food to life through the lens. Every shoot is a new opportunity to collaborate with chefs, understand their vision, and translate it into compelling visuals. Whether it's street food or fine dining, I enjoy the challenge of making every dish look as delicious as it tastes. Helping restaurants shine visually is incredibly rewarding.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
2. What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I've done a wide variety of shoots including portraits, events, gastronomy, and street photography. What makes each shoot special is the time I dedicate to understanding the story behind it—whether it’s a chef’s vision, a couple’s connection, or a moment in the street. I work with intention and empathy, aiming to capture something real and emotional. My goal is to create images that speak beyond aesthetics.
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
I’ve founded brands like 2 Gardenias (formerly "Infraleve") and have been recognized with a Gold Seal award and named one of the top wedding photographers in Murcia.
A fun fact about this photographer
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me dancing swing, experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, or working out. I also film an experimental documentary where we tell deep, human stories with a surreal and comedic twist. Photography is not just my job—it’s my passion, and I feel lucky to live from what I love.
