Jorge was "bit" by the photography bug as an adolescent, and honed his skills at an early age in a busy photo studio, "Photo Coto" in his hometown, San Jose, Costa Rica.

​

Eventually finding his way to New York, he ran a successful photo retouching studio on lower 5th Avenue, and for many years, perfected the art of painting directly onto negatives, correcting unavoidable photography mishaps ... this was before Photoshop!   He had a deft hand with the tiny brushes and dyes, the tools of the trade at the time.

​

Jorge relocated to Nyack, and there found the perfect location to install and grow his photography studio.  There, it has been his honor and pleasure to service the needs of the community and the tri-state area and, has been doing so for the past 25 years!
