This piece is called Nanauatzin. It was taken in Nayarit, Mexico in 2021.
I love the story of Nanauatzin.
While creating the world, the gods decide they need two sacrifices to complete the task. They choose the arrogant Tecciztecatl and the confident Nanauatzin. Ahead of this great honor, Tecciztecatl boasts to everyone that his sacrifice will make him live forever in history. Nanauatzin never says a word, he remains quiet and prepares himself.
The next day, a large bonfire is created and, above it, a huge wooden platform. The gods ask Tecciztecatl to jump from the platform first. He steps up to the platform. But after staring into the fire, his courage fails him and he backs away. At this point, Nanahuatzin calmly steps to the edge of the platform and leaps into the fire. In that moment, he created the entire world as we know it today. The story of Nanauatzin reminds us that there is a thin line between confidence and arrogance: and that line is humility.

Over the years, many of the Aztec models I work with have become good friends. We often create the concepts together, basing them on Mexican myths and fokloric tales.
I pay each model for their time on the photoshoot as well as a percentage of every sale.

US orders are then sent via FedEx and take between 4 – 6 days to arrive. Canadian orders take up to 8 days. International orders vary depending on the destination.
Yes, I shoot with a high-end professional Canon 5D4 camera. My images can be printed much larger if needed with no significant loss of resolution.
I work with an amazing Fine Art Printer in the US. They use a process similar to the classic darkroom method called Chromogenic printing. This is my preferred printing method as it gives the images a richness and depth that suits my style of photography. All my work is printed on premium Fuji Lustre paper, or 100% cotton canvas, and is guaranteed to not fade for over 75 years. Please note that this listing is for the print only, it does not include the frame.
Many of my images are inspired by myths and folkloric stories from Mexico’s rich cultural heritage. From the Mexica myth of Popocatepetl & Iztaccihuatl to the Legend of the Charro Negro.
Over the years, many of the models I work with have become good friends. Each photoshoot is a creative collaboration. I pay each model for their time on the photoshoot and I also pay them a percentage of every print sold.
Yes, but I actually suggest you just purchase the print and frame it locally. Sending a framed print increased the chance of your order being damaged during delivery. I suggest you puerchase the print and get it framed locally.
A limited-edition print is a constrained run edition. This means that an edition limited to 10 copies will end its run after the 10th photo is sold. Limited editions are an investment and are popular with art collectors.

Mary –
This picture is amazing in person. I highly recommend purchasing it. Can’t wait to see how it looks once framed.
