CHAVA OROPESA

Chava Oropesa is an Oakland-based photographer and creative director who brings bold, design-driven perspectives to every project. Born and raised in Mexico City, his work is infused with the color, vibrancy, and cultural richness that continue to accent his visual storytelling. Before transitioning fully into photography, Chava built an extensive background in print, web, and packaging design - the type of experience that gives him a rare understanding of how images function across campaigns, retail environments, and digital platforms. He doesn’t just create striking visuals; he crafts narrative branded content that fits seamlessly into the full life cycle of a brand’s story. Clients value his creative and collaborative nature, problem-solving skills, and thoughtful approach to every assignment. Whether capturing food, product, or lifestyle imagery, Chava’s goal remains the same: to create work that connects with people, tells a vivid story, and drives results.
