Conversations with Elviz Sandoval

Today we’d like to introduce you to Elviz Sandoval

Hi Elviz, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
My name is Elviz Sandoval and I was born in Mexico, when I was 5 years old my family and I moved to Hawaii. I remember my mom buying the quick snap Fuji cameras and she would let me take photos of family and friends and since I’ve always been into photography. I never actually owned a professional so I would always barrow friends camera, would use what I had available such as my phone. That changed in 2020 when I purchased my first professional camera. From there I started to really master my craft and started taking photos of models!
On 2022 I decided to move to California not knowing anyone. Just a young man and his dreams to become somebody. I’m still learning everyday and I encourage anyone out there to never give up on your dreams!

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
My main struggle was getting adjusted to a whole new state that I wasn’t familiar with. I also had to get myself out there and network and meet people who would be down to work with me!

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
I specialize in photography.I take editorial photos, swimwear, creative abstract photos.
I’m known for my visions and how I bring them to life and put a while work of art together. I’m proud of my work and how I come up with an idea and execute it then bring it to life with edit production.

I take my craft very serious and I’m very detail oriented. Who I want to work with, mua, hairstylist, stylist, and talent. I also take my location very serious and most importantly; I love to shoot in golden hour.

What would you say have been one of the most important lessons you’ve learned?
Never stay comfortable, keep pushing, explore new ideas, network and stay motivated with what has brought you this far in life!
