Isa Sanchez | Street Photography | Atlanta

Thanks to @fifa @fifaworldcup for this incredible opportunity to talk about all things Atlanta and the story telling behind my lens. Special thanks to @luke.moreau and @noahmediagroup for stumbling into my photography and the video call from London on that Friday morning back in November that started all this. Cheers, mate! 🙏🏻 Stories from the Cities, a FIFA travelogue series exploring the culture, communities, and creativity that make each 2026 World Cup host city unique. Each episode celebrates local people whose stories reflect the soul of their city – from grassroots soccer movements to art, music, street life and more. Full episode available in all platforms including Apple TV, Prime Video, Fubo, Tubi, and Fox 5 Atlanta, along others in Europe. Links in my stories! @fwc26atlanta Also @nikonusa didn’t sponsor my gear but we could talk about that ambassador program 👀

Bendición mamá y papá, soy de Puerto Rico pa’l mundo! 🇵🇷 I’m excited and honored that CBS News Atlanta featured my photography and the stories I’ve been documenting around the city. 
When Donald first reached out, he asked me: “what stories do you think often go untold?” I’ve been reflecting on that ever since. For me, it’s the small human moments most people pass by without noticing —the quiet gestures of working people, the resiliency of our communities or the overlooked corners of the city that still hold beauty. My camera has always been my way of paying attention to those stories, and of reminding myself (and hopefully others) that people, in their humanity and heritage, are truly special. I hope when you see this piece, you’ll see not just me taking pictures, but the people in them. Because if I manage to do that, then I’m able to connect that person in the photo to the person looking at it. And if I manage to do that, then I’ve done my part in nurturing human compassion and my work is done. I never expected my work to reach this kind of platform, but I’m grateful for the chance to share a bit of Atlanta through my lens. A warm thank you to @official_dfound and @cbsnewsatlanta for showing interest in my work and our Latinx community. It was a pleasure to share my creative process and home for this conversation. Here’s the story along with some of the photos that I took that day! Full video for the story in my stories/bio and here: /atlanta/news/photographer-isa-sanchez-metro-atlantas-latino-community-culture/ A huge shoutout to everyone who’s (unaware) appearance in this story made it all possible: @captura.atl @oye.fest @los_corridos @correatlanta @movepeach @nikonusa (tagging because I couldn’t do this without my Zf and the unintended product placement was crazy 😎)

Atlanta Lately. My favorite slide is 3. Pinch to zoom in- spotting this interaction of two very opposite generations intrigued me. Both in “strollers”, both being pushed by their loved ones, both heading to opposite ends of the street. Mention yours!

Atlanta Lately. Mention your favorite slide 🫶🏻

Thanks to everyone for the outpour of support and love on my @fifaworldcup Stories From The Cities segment 🫶🏻 all still feels surreal to me. Check my last reel if you haven’t watched it! I appreciate you all greatly! Here’s some of the featured photos that I took during filming that day. Comment your favorite one!

We’re all moving to the rhythm of the city. Crossing paths for a second, then gone the next. I’m glad I get to capture these moments before strangers walk away, unaware they were briefly part of someone else’s story. What’s your favorite slide and why? ___ Atlantans Lately

🥳 Another trip around the sun. Grateful for the people, the moments, and the version of me that kept showing up through it all. Here’s to more life, more stories, more pictures, and more of becoming a better man. Feliz cumpleaños a mí 🎂

A little collection of photographs taken through glass, against glass, off glass, with glass, and everything in between. P.s. did I post two days in a row??? I must be in a good mood 😄

Lots of hard light, lots of cold, no clear destination, just following my instinct with my camera. Tens of thousands of steps, no chance to sit down, just capturing every scene NYC had to give me. Which it always has plenty of, and here are a few of them. Thank you for your magic, New York 📸🫶🏻

Last Weekend fue un Baile Inolvidable 💗 thank you Atlanta for showing out! if you see your besties tag them in the comments. And that Benito Bowl energy is just a taste of what’s coming this summer 👀 . 📸 @visualsofisa all pictures available on our website.
