Portrait Photographer | CDMX Martial Arts Photography Shoot
As a professional portrait photographer for hire based in Mexico City, I document the likenesses of athletes like bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts. Occasionally, parents contact me to document their children’s progress in different sports disciplines, as is the case with this young boy in love with martial arts.
While these are not action sports images, they do showcase the child’s sports attraction while preserving this historic moment in his life. Over the years, these photos will make a strong case about who he was during his childhood.

Looking for a Mexico City Photographer Specializing in Sports and Athletic Portraits?
You’re in luck, as I love photographing athletic portraits. Receiving this boy’s mother’s inquiry to shoot his son’s portraits while he was wearing martial arts attire was a happy moment for me. Adding new martial arts portraits to my portfolio wasn’t something I had wished for.

We made a simple plan: to meet in the park and take it from there, depending on and adjusting to the young man’s energy. Having prior experience working with kids, I know that a portrait session with any portrait photographer in Mexico City will be a chore.

After spending a while in the Lincoln park, we headed to Condesa to shoot some more images and try to make the young man feel more relaxed with a portrait photographer around him. It was a great opportunity to grab a portrait of him, his grandma, and his mother. Keep this secret: the grandma wished for this portrait session was near the Chapultepec Castle.

Of course, with so many medals to show off, everyone in his family was very proud of him and his successes. As far as I remember, they mentioned that he had won an overseas contest. That alone is a big enough milestone to celebrate with a portrait session.

While walking around Presidente Masaryk street, we discovered a few beautiful murals that we thought would make for a great background for these athletic portraits. As a portrait photographer, I know most of the places in Polanco.

In capturing athletes’ portraits, I focus on preserving significant moments that reflect their dedication and passion. From bodybuilders to young sports enthusiasts, my goal is to document these milestones in a way that tells their unique stories. Each session, like the one with a young martial artist in Polanco, becomes a cherished memory, showcasing their achievements and growth.
