Ketzally Alcala Photography Portfolio

Ketzally Alcala, a 17 year old photographer based in East Los Angeles. Throughout her photography journey she has been able to experiment with different niches but specializes in portrait, editorial and lifestyle. As seen in her work, Ketzally incorporates her indigenous roots and beliefs into each image curated. She feels as if it is her mission to shed light into her community and people.

Growing up in a predominantly brown community, she observed her surroundings and found that there was a lack of brown voices being uplifted. Through her work she hopes to elicit a sense of belonging and comfort. For a big period in her life she questioned where she belonged and where her place in the world was. She felt a sense of misplacement. Through images, she is able to create memories that allow her to retrace her identity when in moments of self reflection
