Hola, Welcome to Gonzalo Sandoval Photography Worldwide 2011

I Love to relish in anything Photography and the Art it represents…To me, it's like a breath of fresh air …it comes from no where, it just is…. like riding a wave on a boogie board, sliding down the side of the monsterous wave…. Ohhhh Yeah! Like watching a powerful, influential Rock Band kicking ass on stage~ front row or the look of someone smiling at you, full of Life & Light… someone you Love … I am grateful and thankful for Photography, Love and Music !!! I'm open and embracing all that will become my Brand. In the midst I'm having Fun and Loving Life everyday... one day at a time, in the Now!!!! 

I'm an up and coming Photographer in the Los Angeles, Area.  I'm available for hire, kindly contact me to set up your photosession. I'm equipped with a Mobile Photo Studio. I can set up anytime, anyplace, let's talk. Please leave a comment as I read and respond.

Hope you enjoy the images!!!  Rockin' in 2011

Peace & Love Always!

This was a Church Built right into this Amazing Mountain… The Energy here was Heaven. I lit candles for my Dad & Mom and family and even lit a candle for all humanity! Peace and Love everyone!

Another visit to a Vortex

I happened to notice this Beautiful Portrait of and in real Life… I set up my camera and Ba Boom… Instantly captured this image full of Energy!

Masterpiece

On my last hike in Sedona, Arizona...Beautiful!

I shot this one from a Vortex I just happened to run into … I ended up on a medicine wheel at the highest peak of the mountain… I set up and prayed and then shot some amazing pic.s which I’m happy to share. Blessings everyone!

I felt the presence!!!!

Sedona Skys are ever changing and awe-inspiring. Beautiful!

And More Amazing Sedona Skys!!!! We are Blessed!
