About Me |
|
| Aaaah, Juan-Carlos Hernandez !
Cleverly neglected beard, angelic smile, smooth talk…
Those who are regulars at the Sud des Alpes know well his latin charming silhouette.
Juan-Carlos has become the blue note’s « eye » by passion and the Geneva photographer has met and immortalised all the great-well not all of them, but the list is getting longer day by day-of contemporary jazz.
Ornette Coleman opened his New-York appartment door for a portrait session which Juan-Carlos remembers with emotion.
Sonny Rollins, Steve Coleman, Dave Douglas and many others live as well a second life thanks to the photographer’s lens. When Juan-Carlos perfectly masters the science of framing and light, he has a hell of a good ear nonetheless !From Luca Sabbatini (Tribune de Genève, 2th of November 2007) If you like my work and would like to collaborate with me, drop me an email (jazz29171@gmail.com) for availability and rates ! Same adress if you are interested in purchase any photographs. Thanks ! www.jazzeyed.20mn.com "Un Oeil sur le Jazz" is my personal website, have a look and don't forget the guestbook if you like it. Thanks in advance ;-)

Et je suis honoré d’être ton ami."Stefano Saccon : "Tu sais déjà que j'apprécie énormément ton travail, mais ton site me démontre à quel point ta passion est en train de grandir. Tes photos sont d'une qualité remarquable et dégagent toutes l'amour profond que tu portes à la musique. C'est la marque d'un grand photographe que de pouvoir faire passer autant d'émotions. Bravo et merci d'offrir si généreusement tant de bons moments...je me souviens des heures passées devant les photos de Francis Wolff (Blue Note) afin d'essayer de percer dans un regard, des les mains ou dans les instruments, les secrets des grands musiciens de jazz...dans ton site, j'ai envie d'aller vite écouter comment jouent tous les musiciens que je ne connais pas encore. Très stimulant."Marine Bercot : "Merci de toutes mes couleurs. Pour autant de matières et de mouvements, autant de profondeur et de Vie, autant de lumière et de grâce. Merci pour la joie, la présence, le doute, la paix, la fougue, l'envie, la patience, la sensualité, la force, l'inconscience, l'inspiration, la confiance, la gravité, l'insolence... tout cela lisible sur les visages, si bien qu'on les entend. Il n'y rien de vraiment plus beau qu'une photo qu'on écoute... Alors je vous envoie des sourires, autant qu'il en faudra, pour vous remercier du bonheur que vous m'avez donné"Scott DuBois : "Beautiful photos and great website. Congratulations.

Y tus fotos transmiten jazz como si lo escucháramos desde la primera fila. Vibran. Nos hacen sentir la emoción de cada intérprete"Deborah J. Carter : "Para captar una actuacion o musico just cuando ese se encuentra en ese otro plano paralela a la realidad donde se entra desde muy por dentro del alma, hay que tener el 'ojo' para fotografiar aquello. Es un talento, un arte aparte, y Juan-Carlos por lo que veo de tus fotos, lo tienes.
Ole tus pupilas! (Y cuidalas bien...)"Giulia Valle : "Felicitaciones por tu trabajo, minucioso e inspirante. Gracias por estar siempre AhÃ! eres de lo más grande!!!"Lluis Vidal : "Tu mirada hacia los músicos refleja tu gran sensibilidad artÃstica."Baldo Martinez : "Es muy personal tu trabajo y en cada foto cuentas una historia distinta y con mucha sensibilidad, que no es nada facil.

Bellas y originales fotos y unos de los mejores enlaces que he visto."Lydia Filipovic : "Your photos are soulful poetry."Ryan Keberle : "These are all incredible photographs!

"Roseanna Vitro : "You have taken some wonderful action photo's of great jazz musicians. So nice to see some of my friends in your collection."Richard Horowitz : "Ton Traville pour moi represent le combination parfait de realism et MOOD. Tu sai capte' les moment de music avec une intensite' et une sinceretie. Je sent que je suis dans les tets des musicians et de toi. Quand tu arrive a' NY ou LA ou quand je suis en Europe peutetre on peu faire une session... Bravo"Pedro Giraudo : "Me has emocionado con tus fotos, especialmente con una de Ryan Keberle (trombon) y otra de Jonathan Powell (trompeta).
