Ace Reyes

"Each one of us has a chance to be in the spotlight. everyone can make it."

At a very young age, Ace Reyes has become a rising ambassador within the local fashion photography sector holding his own, side by side with more established industry professionals. A millennial photographer making his way into the industry, his playful look at things creativity, and decisiveness, anchored to his make-do attitude, has given him an edge in his craft. Despite the challenges of starting from scratch in a foreign place, Ace has succeeded in getting recognition from the scene, working on commercial assignments, the most notable of which is his long standing engagement as a mainstay photographer for e-commerce giant NAMSHI, capturing the hottest events for the likes of Christian Loubotin, nailing campaigns for AdidasOriginals and MAC cosmetics, and even supporting local and regional artists.

One of his most recognized works is the short documentary "MOFW - Millennial Overseas Filipino Workers". The film features stories of Filipino expats through their hard earned victories and overcoming challenges as a young adult in a different country.

For the young photographer, everyone has a chance to follow their dreams and make a difference, as long as they put in the hardwork. He says, "Be the INSPIRATION, not the COMPETITION."
