Movies have shown us that anyone can just take the camera and become a photographer. Only if that was as easy as shown. Being a photographer is more than just owning a good camera and going around clicking pictures. It is about capturing moments. It means to bring life to something very simple to everyone else. A brilliant photographer captures the entire essence of an object, nature or a person. That is how one can aptly define Pedro Rolle Jr’s skills.
From childhood, he has been fond of clicking photos. His grandfather and mother used to carry camera with them all the time to capture memories. Seeing them, Pedro fell in love with the art of clicking pictures and recording moments. But he realised that one has to bring out their best creative side to show to the world what makes them a photographer compared to a regular person with a camera.
A dreamer from an island in Bahamas with heart full of dreams and hopes is now one of the best photographers in the world. In the past few years, his work has featured on several publications. He collaborated with top models, done fashion photography and amazed people with his aesthetic clicks. One can take a look at his phenomenal work on his official site – PedroRolleJr.com
Today, Pedro Rolle Jr is an independent and successful photographer and an entrepreneur. However, it was a tough journey to reach at this stage in his career. About the challenges he faced, Pedro shares, “Stigmas, I think, is a big problem in the industry. It’s hard for models to look at a photographer and not look at what or who else do they shoot instead of looking at the talent and the vision he’s presenting. It’s not so much a problem for me now but earlier in my career it was hard to get over the “shallowness” (I would call it) in the industry.”
Well, now that Pedro Rolle Jr looks back at this struggles and challenges, he understands how it has helped him grow as a creative soul. He calls it a learning experience and is full set to make a drastic change in the world of photography.
