About

Meet Hector Pachas, more than a photographer

Born and raised in Peru, I can speak and/or understand five languages (guess which ones) and now proudly call Norwalk, CT home. A husband, father, brother, uncle and friend, photography is my profession and my passion but I also do so much else. 

 

I make my own wine (using vines from my Abuelo’s vineyard), am known to whip up some culinary creations, am a devoted Star Wars fan and love watching my children sing and dance at their various recitals — and everywhere else!

Photographer Hector Pachas and family. His family of five stands outdoors near a wooden fence and tree. The mother is holding a young girl in a red dress, both smiling. The father, wearing a beige shirt, holds a toddler in a plaid shirt. A young boy in a light blue shirt stands between the parents, and smiles with one arm on his dad.

Ever since I can remember, I’ve always had a camera by my side. From the final days of shooting actual film, through a pocket-sized Optio5, to now a full-frame Canon, I’ve always been the “designated photographer” for family and friends.

Now, as a professional photographer, I specialize in headshots for individuals, teams, and businesses in Norwalk, CT, as well as throughout Fairfield County and the NYC Metropolitan area.

By the time you meet someone, they’ve likely already checked you out online and formed a preconceived image of you. The right headshot allows you to take control of that story and influence the impression they form.

I truly come alive when connecting with people, often joking that it’s like therapy for both the client and me. It’s about finding what helps them shine and feel utterly comfortable. Watching their true essence emerge is transformative, and it’s deeply rewarding to guide them back to self-love.

From the moment we meet, you’ll notice that ease is a signature of my work. Every photography session is tailored to your unique needs, whether at my studio or in the comfort of your office or location.

During each shoot, I engage with clients and treat them like family, helping us forget about any stress and focus on relaxing and enjoying the process. You’ll walk away with some of the best photos you’ve ever taken.

In addition to headshots, I also specialize in capturing beautiful moments in your personal life, including engagement photos, maternity, bridal showers, newborns, children’s milestones, and family portraits. The common thread in all my work is a professional touch, whether you’re enhancing your business image or cherishing the special moments of life.

If you’re ready to showcase your best, most confident self through a headshot or celebrate your family with photos you’ll love to share, let’s talk—I’ll even throw in a bottle of wine!
