Welcome! I'm Mauricio Ortega-Rios, also known as Coach Moe. I’m a creative storyteller with a deep love for Chicano culture, a heritage that shapes my identity and fuels my artistic vision. Chicano culture is a vibrant tapestry of resilience, community, and history—values I hold close and aim to highlight in every project I take on.
I’m passionate about black and white photography for its ability to capture raw emotions and timeless moments without distraction. As a photographer, my work is a celebration of family and community, with sports photography being my ultimate passion. Through every shot, I strive to capture the intensity, unity, and spirit of the game, finding beauty in the split-second moments that define both competition and connection.
Thank you for stopping by, and I look forward to sharing my work with you!
