Emiliano Cuadrado Rodríguez
My name is Emiliano Cuadrado, and I am a Spanish photographer based in Toulouse. While photography has fascinated me for many years, it wasn’t until 2019 that my passion truly reignited. Discovering street photography opened up an entirely new world of possibilities and creativity for me.
Since then, photography has become an integral part of my life, constantly seeking to capture the beauty in everyday moments on the streets.
Despite being relatively new to street photography, I have already been honored with several international awards and recognitions. These include first and second prize in the Urban Life category at Life-Framer in 2021 and 2024, finalist in the prestigious 13th Leica Street Photo contest in 2024, and Jurors’ Pick at the Street Photographers Foundation Awards 2024.
If you’re curious to know a bit more about me and how I approach photography, here’s an interview I did with Life-Framer. And if you’re into gear, you can also check out on Shotkit.com what I shoot with.
