Luis Aragon is a portrait and commercial photographer based in Washington, D.C., known for creating clean, polished images that highlight real personality and presence. He and his team take a minimal approach, with a focus on perfect skin and lighting that flatters every complexion. His style also incorporates a subtle sense of movement and motion to bring energy and life to each shot.

Luis’ journey with photography began in college, where he discovered the magic of the darkroom. After spending over a decade as a programmer, he picked up a camera again to support his wife Kat, who was building her career as a makeup artist. What started as a way to spend more time together quickly grew into a passion where Luis could combine his design background, technical skills, and love for storytelling.

Today, Luis works with creatives, professionals, and brands to deliver portraits, campaigns, and personal branding imagery that feel confident, sharp, and authentic. He works closely with his wife Kat — a makeup and hair artist with over 20 years of experience — to provide a full-service photo experience that’s smooth, supportive, and collaborative.

Based in the DMV area, Luis travels regularly for projects across the country. Luis is all about capturing people as they truly are — polished and purposeful.
