BIOGRAPHY

Alejandro Bergado Herrán.
Frías – Burgos 1975
Currently living in Bilbao, Spain.

Since childhood I have felt great interest in music, painting and drawing, it was something which I felt really comfortable and peaceful. My first serious contact with photography was during 1997, when I started to become interest in image and development techniques. I began to process my first works in black and white in the University darkroom. I have always been passionate about this process. The darkroom atmosphere and light are an unforgettable experience… a magic place… I still remember perfectly the tranquility and privacy of the chemical process, the slow emergence of the image in the liquid developer… that care and handling the photographs…


After completing my studies I moved to London for 1 year. There I had the opportunity to live with students of Fine Arts and it was supposed my first approach to the experimental and creative photography world. This was a period where my creativity and vision were expanded enormously. I made some projects and exhibitions. Abstractions and experiments formed an entire world that I loved and which I was captivated forever.


In 2005 I start working with the Digital Techniques. From that moment, my relationship with Photography gets more intense and Professional. I get some awards and start doing some cooperation and Professional Projects.


In 2010 I founded Fotoestudiof32 www.fotoestudiof32.com a project exclusively dedicated to Weddings, Family and Studio Photography.

Currently use a pair of digital SLR cameras, and an analog medium format camera. Also occasionally use an Holga and a Polaroid (I have been always fascinated by its color, format and instantaneousness). I have received some awards and I am a member of several projects. My work can also be seen in Getty Images, Artlimited and Flickr.
