His clients involve a long list of international and Argentine brands and firms.

He also works for the largest of international advertising agencies.
Suaya spends as much time as he can in his home in the hipster neighbourhood of Palermo in Buenos Aires with his wife and his dog. Nevertheless, his bags are always ready to leave for the next shooting location, wherever in the world this may take him. He is represented in Barcelona by Gianfranco Meza, in Singapore by Serene Chiu, in Mexico by Joanna Schatz and in Argentina by Geraldine Castro. So, chances are such that he is often hired abroad.
His work has been published in magazines like Elle, GQ, PEN, Woman, Superlab, Wipe and Loft, and also in every quality fashion magazine in Argentina.
He has edited two books, Pocket and Pocket2, which compile some of his backstage pictures; laid back models getting ready for action, a glimpse of a trip and other snapshots unavoidable for an inborn photographer’s eye.His personal work has been exhibited in Argentine museums and showrooms such as Palais de Glace, Centro Cultural Recoleta, CAYC, ICI, Fundacion PROA and Hipodromo Argentino de Palermo, among others.
