Meet Jairo –
Your NYC Photographer
I’m Jairo Alexander Melara, a New York City photographer specializing in couples, families, and portraits. I tell stories through photographs filled with laughter, emotion, movement, and the moments that matter most.
I believe that the best images are the ones that feel real. Whether I’m photographing a couples in Manhattan, a cozy family session in Brooklyn, or a personal portrait in Central Park, my approach is relaxed, honest, and focused on capturing you as you are — no forced poses, no pressure, just authentic connection.
Over the past 10+ years, I’ve had the joy of working with couples, families, and individuals across NYC and beyond, creating timeless galleries filled with love and light. I guide you through the process so you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and confident that the final images will reflect your story beautifully.
When I’m not behind the lens, you can usually find me walking through Central Park with my wife, scouting new photo spots, people-watching, or just taking in the rhythm of the city.
