Vivian Villa-Caratachea
Hi, I’m Vivian, a 35-year-old queer photographer with 17 years of experience, driven by the desire to capture authentic stories through visual art. Raised by Mexican parents, I grew up surrounded by architecture, music, art, and fashion, all of which shaped my distinct creative approach.
My photography thrives at the intersection of music and storytelling, where I focus on creating images that resonate emotionally and conceptually with audiences. I connect with the artists I photograph on a deeper level, capturing not just their performances but the journey behind their music—the moments that brought them to the stage. I like to use bold colors, light, and shadow to highlight the emotional core of each artist’s story, blending energy and nuance in every shot.
In addition to my photography, I work on social media marketing projects, helping brands and artists amplify their presence through captivating visuals and video content. Recently, I contributed to Substance Festival’s promotion, merging my creative and marketing skills to elevate its reach.
Design thinking and social impact are central to my approach—I aim to not only capture an artist's image but also celebrate their achievements and connect them with audiences who share their experiences. My passion lies in collaborating with creatives whose work touches me, and together, we can craft photography and strategies that bring your vision to life.
I’m looking for a permanent role where I can grow with your team and enhance creative operations to help drive success.
