Mario Suarez Porras, Spain

I'm Mario Suarez Porras, born in 1968, Asturias, where I live and work as a primary school teacher trying to instil in my pupils a love of nature.

I'm a photographer since I was 13, when my father gave me my first SLR camera. The arrival of digital photography was the starting point of my current passion: bird photography.
Living close to the North Spanish coast, a great place for sea-shore birds and their migrations allowed me to specialize in photographing these amazing little traveler birds during the last 15 years.

I've been working with nature magazines, newspapers and government publications. Also I have participated in several exhibitions and have been awarded in most of the best international Nature Photography contests. In some of them I have taken part as a jury member.

I'm an active member of several Nature and Birds Associations, but especially I feel proud of being a founding member, and nowadays president, of AFONAS, the Nature Photographers Association of his county. 


My passion is bird photography, and I try to show the beauty of birds. I attempt to capture unique moments. If it weren’t for the magic of photography these moments would go unnoticed. And there are many of those waiting for us to view.

And what do I want to transmit? Well hopefully our work helps to raise awareness of the beauty that surrounds us, many times very close to home, and to encourage respect for mother Earth.
