About Me

I'm Gabriel Alfaro Jr., the Creative Director of PhotosfromAlfaro a brand I launched in December 2024 during my junior year at Merritt Island High School. Now, as a senior, I've spent the past year building not just a business, but a growing community of creatives and athletes who believe in the power of storytelling through visuals.

My journey began when I was just five years old. I didn’t have a fancy camera, just a Nintendo 3DS. But even then, I was capturing moments — from action figure battles to everyday memories with my sister. Looking back at those photos reminds me that the passion was always there. I just didn’t know it had a name yet.

I tried out for soccer, basketball, and football, but I never made the teams. Still, I kept showing up. I realized that while I might not be the one scoring the points, I could be the one capturing the moments — the intensity, the passion, the greatness. Some of the same athletes who made those teams became my first clients. That’s when I knew: this is where I belong.

PhotosfromAlfaro is more than just photography. It’s about recognizing talent, telling powerful stories, and giving athletes a platform to show the world what they were made for. Through every photo I take, I aim to reflect not just skill or hustle, but the beauty of the gifts God has given each of us.

This isn’t just my passion — it’s my purpose. And I’m just getting started.
