Jorge Parra Photography’s Experience
-
Owner and Creative Producer
The New Latin Chic Project
(Privately Held; Myself Only; Marketing and Advertising industry)
January 2008 — Present (5 months)
The New Latin Chic is a visual proposal for sophisticated Latin an Hispanic Marketing and Advertising publications. I am looking after a revamp process to enhance the quality of the publications in the hispanic market, which is the fastest and largest growing market in the US, but still lacks class and style. I can successfully bring these elements to the mix.

Owner and Project Manager
The Urban Bikini Project
(Privately Held; Myself Only; Entertainment industry)
September 2005 — Present (2 years 9 months)
The UrbanBikini project ( Ubik) is an editorial concept that is expanding to other multimedia expressions and will soon publish in various cities. The idea behind UBIK is to embrace the beauty of great models and swimmwear/body shots, Fashion/Beauty photography shot mostly on the urban landscape as opposed to the "classical" view of models in swimwear at the beach.
The project has evolved to also include lingerie and some "indoor urban" environments.
As stated, the plan is to keep expanding the productions and shootings to other cities. Ubik Miami is our ongoing project. -
