We had the good fortune of connecting with Emanuel Pastrana and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Emanuel, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I wanted the freedom to chase my passion of storytelling through photos and videos.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Being primarily in the nightlife space trying to tell a story with pictures or a 15-25 seconds video recap is difficult at times. Especially when you don’t want to repeat styles or content. Each night is an opportunity to find something new and unique that I haven’t shot before.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would definitely say for food you have to go to the Mills/Downtown Orlando area and for hanging out there’s so much to do especially at night. Lots of really diverse cultures and so many different activities.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My dad and owner of Venture Leadership & Marketing. He took a chance on me when I genuinely didn’t believe in myself and he helped guide me to where I am today.
