Cortez
has written articles for and has had his photographs published by
some of the most prestigious magazines and book publishing companies
such as National Geographic, WildBird, Birder's World, National
Audubon and the Nature Conservancy. He also taught nature photography
part-time as a part of the upper school two dimensional art program
at St. Albans School in Washington, D.C. for 23 years.
During
his 39 year career Cortez has won many awards and recognition in
domestic and international competitions such as the Professional
Photographers of America International Print Competition with whom he
has photos in the coveted Loan Collection. In January he will receive
the Master of Photography Degree from them along with a Silver Medal
for having all of his images accepted into their most recent
competition.
Cortez
believes that, as much knowledge as you may accumulate in
photography, the best photographers will always be students of the
craft. Regarding his quest for photographs he states... "I make
many sacrifices of money, comfort and safety to get to where I want
to photograph. Once I get there I struggle to see things a new way,
to get beyond the standard photograph. Often the most critical
"skills" in photography are patience and perseverance in
uncomfortable and sometimes dangerous situations." His website
