Self-taught without professional ties to the photography industry, Sergio Saavedra Ruiz has earned recognition for his intricate work in worldwide publications and competitions. At 35, the Spanish native also has a number of awards and honorable mentions and has had the opportunity to show his distinctive style, having competed in several prestigious events, including "Px3 Paris Photo Prize", "Epson International Pano Awards", "Fine Art Photography Awards", "Budapest International Photo Awards", "Tokyo International Photo Awards" or "Chromatic Photo Awards". "It is a pleasure and pride to know that your land is recognized anywhere in the world on its own merits." Inspired by natural landscapes and the animal kingdom, Sergio cites his immediate surroundings as his greatest muse. Determined to refrain from taking generic photographs that simply document picturesque animals or panoramas, Sergio has spent the past six years mastering his art and strengthening the basic foundations of his favorite disciplines to capture photographs mixed with feelings and expressions.
