LA Charreada
A collection of prints from my ongoing series LA Charreada, which explores charrería’s deep roots in Los Angeles, particularly in Pico Rivera, where the sport thrives as a living expression of Mexican heritage. Through intimate moments and vibrant scenes, the photos capture its traditions, community, and lasting influence on American culture.
Handcrafted silver gelatin print on your choice of Resin Coated (RC) or Fiber Base (FB) paper created using traditional darkroom techniques, ensuring that every print has its own unique variation. See print shop for details on the differences between RC and FB.
Highly recommend adding a custom made 4-ply acid-free matboard.

Carefully made on my favorite inkjet paper, Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta. It has a strong weight (315gsm) and a 100% cotton base for long-term durability, with a soft gloss finish that enhances the image without overpowering it. See print shop for more details on the Hahnemühle Photo Rag Baryta paper.
