Ali Montemayor Photography

In 2020, I embarked on a mission for everyone to see themselves as art. Showcasing stories and moments worthy of not only being told, but outright displayed with pride.  You are a masterpiece. I’m simply here to capture your story in the right light. 

A restless, creative soul, that traded her paintbrush for a camera.

I was born and raised in the great Lone Star State, but found myself in the land of beehives for college. While studying the political sciences I found catharsis in doodles. Let me tell you, no piece of paper was safe. In my 4th year at Utah State, I took one singular art class, where I  was able to focus on the human form, and establish a deep appreciation for capturing a moment in ones eyes. I went on to forgo poli-sci with absolute reckless abandon, and pursue art instead. I even illustrated a few children’s books, but portraiture had my heart.

Then, I had twins.

My creativity took a back seat, as I dedicated a year to them, but the siren song rang in my ears, and I knew I had to find a way back to my beloved portraits. Seeing as how paint and charcoals do not mix well with minions of mayhem,  I turned to a new medium, in the form of a camera. Instead of acrylics and inks, I now painted in light. A hobby that was founded out of a necessity to spark creativity, soon ignited into an all encompassing inferno. Photography burns within me, and with every new endeavor it glows a bit brighter.
