My Name is Elizabeth Cordova Becerra I am 39 years old, I am an audiovisual artist who seeks to be continually renewed, art came to me since I was a child, I always knew that I wanted to dedicate myself to the media. Looking for my passion, I began my studies in Barcelona with an acting career, that helped me connect with myself and explore my artistic side, that’s where I realized that behind the camera there were many more tools to grow my art. That’s when I decided to study the university in audiovisual media at the CAAV in Guadalajara Jalisco Mexico my hometown. Which helped me to obtain all the necessary tools in my job. Actually i reside in Marbella, Spain.
My journey in the arts began with experimenting in wildlife documentaries, which I was deeply passionate about, but found to be financially unrewarding. In the arts, it’s not only important to live for your passion but also to make a living from it—contrary to the belief in ancient times. This realization led me to explore both the commercial and romantic sides of art, giving me the opportunity to do what I love while growing in my profession.
Through wedding photography, I found my true calling. I became a documentarian of love. Each wedding, each couple, and each family has a unique story to tell, and I enjoy finding the essence of each couple and drawing inspiration from that. I believe that every couple provides the foundation for me to, in turn, create a style that is uniquely theirs.
I am happily married to my soulmate of over 18 years, Christian Petaccia. Not only is he mylife partner, but he’s also an incredible videographer and an essential part of my crew at Longtake Film, contributing to many of my projects. We have a wonderful 9-year-old Italo-Mexican son, who is truly one of a kind. His talent for the arts has led him to write several books, and he’s a lively, intelligent child who is currently passionate about karate. He is an integral part of my life.
The three of us make a great team—my husband from Italy, me from Mexico, and our little blend of both cultures. For a long time, we lived in my hometown of Guadalajara, Mexico, but we wanted to return to where it all began—Spain. It was in this country that we met, and after traveling the world, we eventually settled in Mexico. Now, we live in Marbella, a place we love and believe is perfect for our son to grow up safe and happy
Currently, I live on the Costa del Sol and am happy to say that I love this area for its unique beauty and the countless stunning locations that Andalusia offers as perfect backdrops places like Nerja, marbella, Malaga some of them with incredible beauty. However, I go wherever my profession takes me. I am available worldwide and love traveling and discovering new places through my work.
