My name is Mario Uribe, and I was born in Colombia, South America. Growing up in Texas and traveling around the world, I’ve had the privilege of considering many wonderful places home. Presently, I am fortunate to live in New York City, an incredibly photogenic city with a diverse culture, fascinating neighborhoods, and remarkable architectural.
I find zen in taking pictures. Alongside my passion for going out there and shooting, I admire today’s talented photographers and take a keen interest in learning from the pioneers of this art form in the past. My curiosity extends to all genres of photography, but I particularly enjoy capturing street scenes, wondrous architecture and abstract compositions.
Each photograph I’ve taken represents a sincere endeavor to encapsulate the very essence that transforms each instant into its own captivating narrative.
A Special Thanks…
