Description

Editorial and Commercial Photographer Amanda López immerses us in the process and context of creating three of her most significant images. She tells us about photographing Mexican actress Kate del Castillo, who she used to watch as a child with her family. Her experience photographing her grandmother and what her grandmother meant to Amanda's family story, her creative journey and her own personal growth. Finally, a gorgeous image of Mexican actress Yalitza Aparicio Martínez. 

Our Image Tours an opportunity for  photographers to share some of their most significant images and take you behind the scenes. This can include why or how they made the image, its personal significance, and/or the personal, social, or political context of the image. I hope you enjoy Amanda's image tour as much as I did.
