Sergio Veranes is one of the rare photographers with exceptionally refined esthetics and who can capture the essence of the person..

A joyful, easy, relaxed, and profound session with an artist as sensitive as he is talented. A true connection that visibly expresses itself in a result where the subject's soul shines through... A great artist! Pure pleasure and meaning! Thank you, Sergio! Very Much!.

I had the pleasure of doing a photo shoot with Sergio Veranes in 2019. He approached me to participate in a series of "natural" portraits. The atmosphere in the studio was truly pleasant and relaxed, and the photos turned out beautifully!

Working with Sergio is a journey into the unknown of who I am, and I always emerge with a deeper understanding of myself. From the very first moment, I felt I could express myself without judgment, without needing to achieve a specific result. Our exchange took place on both a professional and spiritual level. I discovered new possibilities for existing both in form and spirit. This brought me great joy and resulted in beautiful photographs. Thank you so much, Sergio.

How fortunate to have been photographed by Sergio Veranes! His exceptional talent has been appreciated by the readers of the Montréal International Jazz Festival programs and my autobiography (published by Éditions La Presse), as well as during an exhibition at Place des Arts.

It was truly a privilege to collaborate with Sergio. A photographer with immense experience, deeply passionate, and able to articulate and target what he seeks from the artist in front of his lens, while also allowing great freedom. A genuine collaboration, with real sharing and plenty of exchanges. He doesn't just look for simple aesthetic forms; he strives to bring out movement, emotion, a state of mind, and an atmosphere in his photos. The series I am part of, which he produced with several other movement artists, is sublime, powerful, and truly highlights the beauty of the body. Thank you for everything, Sergio; I am so thrilled with the result!!

To be photographed by Sergio Veranes is a unique experience in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere, free of artifice, where a smile, a gesture, or a glance, captured naturally throughout the session, reveal the true beauty of being human. Thank you so much, Sergio!

Incredible photographer, very easy to work with he is very helpful in finding the right face and body angles but giving also a lot of freedom. Sergio knows perfectly how to use lights and shadow in a very subtle and poetic way. It’s a pleasure working with him.

I allowed myself to be captivated by a Spanish/Cuban/American/Frenchman, now also a Quebecker. Having settled in Montreal some time ago, he is one of those great ones who made photography his life, his livelihood, his passion. From Paris to Milan, from Miami to New York, from Panama to Montreal, all have seen and admired his art. He has photographed many celebrities of this world, as well as complete strangers, and today, he pauses in the City of a Hundred Steeples to capture our portrait. His "Aura" project seeks to show that what gives Montreal its superb uniqueness is indeed the soul of those who live here...

Thank you, Sergio.

Thank you Sergio Veranes so much for the incredible opportunity and privilege to be photographed by you! I love the shoot we did in Panama so much...! Your photography really is Fine Art; you have such a unique talent and a keen eye for creating the most engaging, powerful and beyond beautiful images that tell such incredible stories of the individuals who come alive in your presence and in front of your lens. The photo of me running out of the ocean tells such an amazing story...the one I am living right now...As you said it "Could be out of a James Bond or Hitchcock flick... The Bird in the background stands for the Strength, the Spirit that moves the Soul... The waves, the obstacles one finds... And running ahead, serene, yet determined and goal oriented...sensual, feminine, beautiful yet fast paced, strong and balanced...You." Thank you for Seeing me; thank you for Revealing me...it was one moment in time, yet you captured the courage, power and serenity in me that I remind myself to be daily. Thank you...

I honor you all for the gift of your presence, your openness and trust, for allowing us to explore and  create together images that speak of the moment, without pretense or artifice, and yet so true and powerful.
