Rolando “Rolly” Cabanillas — Photographer & Videographer
Photography started as a hobby — albeit an expensive one — but I quickly became hooked. Over the past 15 years, I’ve dedicated myself to learning and perfecting techniques to freeze emotions and stories in every frame.
What began as a personal journey has evolved into my profession. But for me, photography isn’t just a way to make a living — it’s about creating joy. Seeing the excitement and smiles from my clients when they see their photos makes every session worthwhile.
I’m originally from Peru and have been living in South Florida since 2000. My professional background is in systems engineering, but I found my passion in photography — a world that lets us capture life’s most meaningful moments and relive them every time we revisit an image.
I specialize in capturing authentic moments, whether it’s for a special event or a personal portrait session. With a blend of creativity and attention to detail, I strive to make every photograph reflect your unique story.
