I am Aquila “Quilz Tamay” Flores

A Belizean entrepreneur, traveler, and conservationist and the photographer of Photography by Quilz Tamay. My entrepreneurial journey as a photographer began during the pursuit of my Bachelor’s degree; almost 7 years ago. Since then, I have been dedicated to working on my craft and creating my own space in a competitive industry. Thankfully, during this journey I have worked with great brands, beautiful models, for worthy causes and have captured priceless moments. Despite these achievements, I feel the most accomplished when capturing the glorious vistas that Belize has to offer.

Along with having a passion for photography I have a deep love for nature in fact, photographing the wild was how I discovered my passion. That passion also enabled me to explore and capture mind-blowing vistas across Belize, which is why I am a champion for the environment. My background in the conservation community enables me to closely work with numerous protected areas co-managers in Belize. This close working relationship further fostered my appreciation for Belize’s natural resources. I believe that my unique perspective has emerged over time due to my love for photography, for travel and for conservation.
