Mario Velez has been dedicated to photography for more than 20 years. Born and raised in Mexico City, Mario felt compelled and fascinated with Mexico's color, attitude, and characters. While in Mexico he had the opportunity to study photography with one of the best fine art photographers in Mexico, Mr. Lazaro Blanco. Mario's philosophy as a photographer is to thrill and inspire with his images. "I take photographs by mentally listening to the subject and by visualizing ways to capture the unique qualities of it. It does not matter if the photograph is in color or black and white; I will always try to make the picture speak or transmit the feelings of the moment." Since transplanted to the Tampa bay area, Mario has been actively involved with several photographic events. He is affiliated with different organizations dedicated to the advancement of the photographic art. Selected affiliations include Gala Corina, Artist Unlimited Inc., Tampa Gallery of Photographic Arts, and the Sun Coast Camera Club. Mario's work has participated in juried exhibitions with great success winning important prizes and recognition. Mario's photographs are part of private and corporate collections such as the office of Multicultural Activities in the University of South Florida and Gearbulk Incorporated.
