I am Rikii Altamirano, also known as Rikii Image, I am a talented freelance photographer passionate about documentary and fine art photography. Originally from Timor Leste, I am currently based in Bristol, United Kingdom, where I have become well known for my unique perspective on photography in the community.
Working as an event photographer, my artistic journey has been profoundly shaped by my pursuit of a Photography HND-Level 5 qualification. This comprehensive study has equipped me with a deep understanding of both digital and analogue photography, empowering me to skillfully navigate every phase of the photographic process, from capturing images to editing and processing, and ultimately to print. This technical proficiency has enabled me to craft visually captivating and emotionally affecting photographs that breathe life into events.
My artistic perspective is founded on the belief that photography possesses the remarkable ability to immortalise fleeting moments and evoke profound emotions. Through my lens, I endeavour to narrate stories and summarise the ambience and sentiments of the events I photograph. Whether it's a jubilant celebration, a pensive conference, or a heartening community gathering, my commitment lies in encapsulating the very essence of each event in a manner that is both genuine and visually compelling. Additionally, I am well-versed in utilising digital studio techniques and processing images in the darkroom, allowing me to offer a diverse range of photographic services.
