Matias
Bilbao, 29, a native of Caracas, Venezuela, studied biology
and photography at Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska
and is currently a freelance photographer and digital artist
in Miami. The camera and a fascination with digital imaging
won the young artist’s dedication. But it’s
clear that his biology studies were not in vain – as
evidenced by the subjects of his lens.
Cowboys, fashion models, boxers, rock stars, the unknown faces
of many cultures – all have been caught in the passion
of Bilbao’s talent and have been caught in his commitment
to transmit the soul of his subjects onto film.
The photographer finds time to teach his craft in both traditional
and digital photography to emerging creative professionals
at the Miami Ad School on Miami Beach. And, to occupy the down
time in Bilbao’s life, there’s an exciting new
project underway called “Yellowcase”. This project
is designed to train digital artists and professional photographers
in digital imaging techniques and color management technologies,
allowing the color that is produced by a computer’s printer
to match the monitor perfectly. The company services digital
labs that are rapidly growing in popularity as well as small
design firms.
