About Jorge Ortiz

Your Wedding Photographer in Antigua Guatemala

When I was twelve, my dad handed me a borrowed camera so we could bond on weekends. I spent those first summers chasing our dog through the garden, trying to freeze her wild zoomies in a single frame. Thirteen years and more than 250 weddings in Guatemala later, that same curiosity fuels every click.
Born and raised in La Antigua Guatemala, I know exactly when the afternoon light kisses the ruins of Santa Clara or spills over Volcán de Agua. Six years ago I photographed my first wedding here; the blend of magic, elegance, and pure spontaneity hooked me for life.

PHOTOGRAPHY PHILOSOPHY

I am your storyteller. My documentary approach celebrates genuine emotion—tears, belly laughs, windswept veils, and joyful chaos—while carving out time for creative, intimate portraits that feel natural, not staged. No Pinterest replicas. No stiff poses. Just the real way you hold each other, framed by Antigua’s weathered arches or Lake Atitlán’s mirror-still waters.
I believe photographs gain value with every passing anniversary. When memories blur at year five, eight, or fifteen, your gallery will pull you right back—hearing your vows, tasting the cake, remembering the way your friends screamed on the dance floor.

BEYOND THE CAMERA

Craft-beer home-brewer, campfire pro, hopeless foodie who never skimps on a good meal while traveling. I pack light so my camera always fits, and my handwriting is terrible—but my clients say my emails feel like chatting with an old friend.
