Photographer Profile: Marcelo de Coghlan

Marcelo Esperon describes himself in simple terms: family man, dentist, motorcyclist, photographer. But behind those words is a life built around caring for others, navigating challenges with quiet courage, and finding beauty in everyday moments.

Photographer Profile: Gabe Sachs

Gabe Sachs is a film and television writer-producer who is always shooting. With a camera close at hand on set, he captures candid behind-the-scenes moments and intimate portraits shaped by trust and access. After losing much of his gear in the 2025 Pacific Palisades fires, Gabe continues to rebuild—documenting the moments between action and cut through photography and his podcast, I Dream of Cameras.
