Melvin Morales

Photographer, Las Vegas, NV

Melvin Morales is a Las Vegas based artist whose work centers on landscape photography. His interest in photography began at a young age. Picking up a Nikon camera, he became fascinated with the ability to capture moments as a way of preserving memory.

Born in Puerto Rico and raised in Cranston, Rhode Island. Graduated from Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston with a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Design.

In 2021, moved to Las Vegas to reconnect with family. Since then, focused on exploring Nevada and the Western region, engaging more intentionally with nature through photography.

Founder of Proview Media, a creative company specializing in photography, videography, and web design for businesses. FAA certified drone pilot.

My work is rooted in time spent in the landscape. Photography is an act of slowing down and paying attention to the surroundings. In Nevada's open terrain, change happens gradually and the land carries its history in plain view. Being present becomes a way of understanding scale, stillness, and permanence.

When I photograph landscapes throughout Nevada, I focus on environments that are often passed by or overlooked. These are the places where distance, light, and silence reveal the land is constant, while human presence remains temporary.

My intention is to bring these landscapes closer to those who encounter my work. I aim to reduce the sense of separation between viewers and location. The photographs are meant to be observed as points of connection and reminders that these environments exist within reach. I hope to inspire my audience to experience Nevada beyond the frame.
