Do it with a passion

Alexander is not only a photographer but is aslo a graphic designer who’s got one of those inspiring skills we can all learn something from. How to turn passion into profit and keep on enjoying what you love to do.We love Lex's art and recently bought a bunch of his social media posters to spruce up our office and home. Lately there has been a huge buzz & demands for LEX PHOTOGRAPHY/DESIGN and since and I couldn’t help but ask Alexander  how he does it (and beg him to keep on doing it!)




I have a pretty big imagination and I’m constantly thinking of something new to create. I feed off everything from Social media, Digital Media , different cultures , movies , t.v lets just say ideas are everywhere. Sometimes when I have an idea I do a sketch. There is also times when I just sit down with the idea and turn out a final product. I tend to have a terrible memory, so some of my ideas can get lost if I don’t finish them off quickly. Maybe I should write things down… lol.

You get the very cool art of Alexander Ruiz /Lex Photography , a digital artist who knows a thing or two about creativity and getting to the heart of what people love. Since majoring in Digital Media Arts I started to see the world differently from that point on, using my surroundings as inspiration and appreciating the little things in life. Alexander Ruiz has a lot going on! Here are some quick links to my various projects. Take a look around and don't be shy..

What ever you do in life do it with a passion ! I spend hours designing and weeks and months traveling to capture great photos. A strong passion for any object will ensure success, for the desire of the end will point out the means and  Passion that is so deep within that all we need to do is release the passion inside so that we become energized with a newness that all will want to share in my DIGITAL IMAGES

Short Bio.

http://500px.com/LexPhotography

Alexander Ruiz also known as Lex was born and raised in New York City, based on the Lower East Side. Photography has always been a part of his life. Lex always liked taking pictures as a child. Intrigued by the fact a photograph can capture any moment in time and preserve it for years is amazing to him. “It’s almost like going back in time, only with vivid images to remember.” As Lex got older he started to play with cameras and discovered something he was good at, so it soon became his passion.

Alexander has worked and traveled around the world including spending 7 years in New Zealand. Throughout his life he has worn many hats in the fields of construction, retail, catering, acting and of course nothing has captured him like photography and design. He loves to work outside and at locations that may be outside of a standard comfort zone. As a photographer Lex plans to set goals throughout this journey and that is to set himself up in a way where he can be working with in fields such as acting and theater, dance, erotic, fashion, fetish, modeling, fitness, hair and makeup, lifestyle, lingerie, pregnancy, promotional, runway, swimwear, underwater. Lex is in no way limiting himself or his skills.
Lex has been inspired mostly by Quentin Shih and Kall Gustafsson. He prides himself in having a similar style to Kall Gustasson but of course with his own unique artistic twist.

“Photography and design means the world to me. I won’t let anything or anyone get in the way of my work and passion. I prefer to work on things that are going to get me where I want to be in life with a positive path towards my career. When working with photography I am open to anything ...
