I am Jorge Alvariño, and I started working as a still photographer on film shoots, taking promotional photographs and creating movie posters with international producers and distributors such as Apaches Entertainment, Aurum, Paramount, Universal Pictures, Telecinco Cinema, and Antena 3 Films.
I have carried out advertising campaigns for different clients: Coca Cola, Banco Santander, BBVA, Bancaja, and EMI music, and since mid-2011, I have been represented in advertising by Maribel Zaldivar for the Essencial agency.
I have photographed celebrities such as Elijah Wood, Javier Bardem, Alec Baldwin, Sasha Grey, Clive Owen, Pau Gasol, Daniel Brühl, and Corey Feldman for publications such as Esquire, Empire, Rolling Stone, Premiere, American Cinematographer, Vogue, El Pais Semanal, El Sunday, and other international magazines. I am currently the director of photography for the iPad magazines VIS-À-VIS and MINE.
