About
Me.

My name is Robert Ortega and I am a nature photographer

Robert Ortega is a nature photographer based in Santa Monica, California. Robert’s focus is single physical beings, such as an animal or a flower. Because each photo is of one single item, the visual focus is the item’s composition. His photographs of animals center around the materials colors, and textures that the animal is composed of. Photographs of flowers emphasize their physical structure, colors, and positioning. Robert travels around the world to specific countries whose ecosystems he wants to explore and photograph.
