Alexis Cuarezma

略歴

Alexis Cuarezma is a Nicaraguan born portrait photographer/director based in the San Francisco Bay Area who specializes in both on-location and in-studio portraiture. A passion for bold visuals has colored his whole life, and his childhood interest was nurtured at CSUEB, where he studied art, graphic design and photography.

His cultural heritage has proven a prominent influence; as a volatile Nicaragua forced Alexis’ family to emigrate to the U.S. when he was six years old, his vision has been informed by themes of sacrifice—of life, love, and self for the greater good. Muses include French Neoclassical painter Jacques-Louis David and Nicaraguan poets Rigoberto Lopez-Perez and Ruben Dario, as well as his namesake, Alexis Arguello, a professional boxer, three-time world champion, politician— and source of inspiration for Alexis’ involvement in boxing photography.

He's an Alumnus of the prestigious Eddie Adams Workshop (Barnstorm XXIV), has been commissioned for assignments by NIKE, Sports Illustrated, the LA Times, the New York Times, HBO and a number of international publications. His touch has graced the cover of Sports Illustrated 6 times, boxing’s “Bible,” the esteemed Ring Magazine, and that of Undisputed Fight Magazine; covers of UK boxing mags SEEN, Fighting Fit, Boxing News, TV Guide, People Magazine round out Alexis’ resume. His vibrant aesthetic is often sought out for editorial, commercial, and private commissions.

ご感想

As a commercial director & photographer known for my lighting and use of color, it is imperative for me to know the colors in my images and short films are rendered the way I intended them to. The clarity and color rendition of the ViewSonic VP2785-4K is outstanding. And the nearly border-less edge to edge design lets me focus on my work and I forget I'm looking at a monitor. The VP2785-4K delivers so much value as a creative tool to ensure the quality of my work.
