Photography has opened my eyes to the beauty and reality, which exists in our world, and has allowed me to exercise my other fortes in the industry simultaneously. Every time the shutter closes on my camera, I am privileged to document a unique moment of my subject’s life.†Peniche’s images reflect the world through a kaleidoscope of subjects. From shooting in the trenches of the world’s most notorious gang neighborhoods to shooting in the most lavish abodes sitting atop of hills overlooking the very world he roams.
