Aimeri Baddouh

Photographer · Cuenca, Ecuador

I photograph people and products. The people part is about patience — waiting for the mask to slip, for the real expression to surface. The product part is about control — every shadow placed, every highlight earned.

My work splits into three modes. Portraits range from controlled studio sessions with sculpted light to golden-hour walks through Cuenca's cobblestone streets. Product photography lives in two registers: dark and moody, where a single light source does most of the talking, and pop-color flat lays built on bold backdrops and graphic composition.

I work with local artisans and small businesses, expat families, international e-commerce brands, and visitors who want to take a piece of this city home with them. I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese — communicate in whichever feels right.

Every session starts with a conversation, not a camera. The shot list, the mood board, the lighting plan — those come from understanding what you need and why you need it.
