Hi, I’m Diego, a freelance Director of Photography based in Emeryville, California. I’m passionate about creating visuals that tell a story, spark emotions, and bring ideas to life. For me, the real magic happens in the collaboration—I love working with talented teams to craft images that not only look stunning but really connect with people.

Over the years, I’ve worn a lot of hats on set. I started out as a Creative Services Producer for NBC Universal and have since worked with creative agencies to shoot and produce branded commercials and multi-layered campaigns. That experience has given me a deep understanding of how to blend creativity with technical skill to deliver brand messages that truly resonate.
What sets me apart is my focus on commercial branded filmmaking. I thrive on the challenge of bringing a brand’s vision to life in a way that feels authentic and impactful.

I’ve been lucky enough to collaborate with some incredibly talented individuals, and each project I take on is a chance to push creative boundaries and tell a new story. When you work with me, you’re not just getting a Director of Photography—you’re getting someone who’s genuinely committed to ensuring the final product is something we’re both proud of.
