My name is JP, and I believe every moment has a story worth telling.


I am a father, educator, leader, and photographer based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Through Tip of the Spear Photography, I combine my passion for sports, community, and storytelling to capture moments that define athletes, families, and organizations.

As an educator and mentor, I've dedicated my career to helping young people grow, lead, and realize their potential. That same passion carries into my work behind the camera. I don't simply take pictures—I preserve moments of determination, resilience, celebration, and achievement that deserve to be remembered.

The name Tip of the Spear represents my approach to life and business: lead from the front, stay focused on the mission, and inspire others through service and action.

Whether I'm covering a championship match, creating senior portraits, or documenting a milestone event, my goal remains the same—to tell your story with authenticity, purpose, and passion.


Lead. Focus. Inspire.


Focused on Victory. Framed in Action.

From humble

beginnings.

Tip of the Spear Photography was born from a simple idea: the moments that shape our lives deserve to be remembered.

Creating Works of Art
