Alberto Campos and Ilber García: Fashion Photographers Making their Mark from Miami to New York

Dynamic duo Alberto Campos and Ilber García, both Venezuelan natives, have been taking over the fashion photography scene since settling in New York five years ago. After knowing each other for more than a decade and studying at the same university – Alberto, who has been a lawyer since 2014 and Ilber, a prior theater actor who was on his way to becoming an economist – wound up fleeing the political turmoil of Caracas, Venezuela for New York and now reside in Miami. It wasn’t long before they started doing shoots together and working with models from their homeland. Their talent was soon discovered by a well-known photographer who became a close mentor and advisor. He helped to introduce the duo’s photography to magazines and now they are ingratiated in the industry and working with a well-known agency.

“Our main objective is to transform the look of our models and to capture the natural style while maintaining the diversity of the classic look,’ explains Alberto. “It’s not about sticking to strict ideas. We love working with new faces and models and always strive to stay classic while mixing things up with alternative accessories and outfits.”

Currently, the duo has exciting projects in the works including a collaboration where they will be pulling from their roots by showcasing models and brands from their home country of Venezuela in photographs around the US as well as in other countries. The unique vision of these two creatives, whose imaginations let loose through their lens, already work with fashion icon Nick Wooster and have been featured in international magazines including L’officiel, Grazia and L’officiel Hommes in addition to other outlets. Alberto and Ilber are even working on an upcoming cover with Wooster where they will be shooting icons in New York.

Since arriving in the US, these two talented and established fashion photographers, who continue to be inspired by Inez and Vindooh as well as Manny Roman, also work with talent from top agencies such as Wilhelmina, Next Models and LA Models. You will soon be able to find more of their work as they have multiple projects lined up with campaigns for brands between New York and Miami – and this is still just the beginning for them.
