Howdy, my name is Diego and over the years the nickname "Yiegs" has stuck to me - hence Yiegstography. I am 22 from Las Vegas and have been in Teton Valley for 2 years now. Moving out here for a seasonal job I was not expecting to fall in love with the area like I did. After working hard and saving up I was finally able to invest in myself so I could turn my favorite hobby into my job. Photography is my greatest passion and being able to do it full time is a dream to me.
I picked up photography freshman year of high school in 2014 and haven't turned back since. After a year of film photography we began to learn the basics of digital photography and that is where my creative mind took off. So many different kinds of photography and styles that I almost couldn't keep up... and then learning that I could do that for a living???!!! I knew where my mind was set then and there.
Started off with a cheap $400 Nikon - if I have learned one thing in all my years of photography its that at the end of the day it really does come down to the photographer, not the camera ( don't worry - my current set up is $6,000+). Began taking family portraits during my junior year of high school and during my senior year I was able to take tons of graduation pictures since everyone around me was graduating. From there I dabbled in automotive, landscape, and commercial photography and have been doing a mix of them all since then.
It's a perfect medium for someone like me. Being able to tell a story through pictures is what keeps my creative mind going. Seeing people smile and enjoying themselves during a photoshoot is what drives me to be the best that I can be. Making other people happy is what makes me happy and through photography I can do just that. The entire process from the photoshoot, to the post processing, to the delivery. It's all one story and its only right to use my talents to help others hold dear to their stories as well.
I am working with a Sony a7iv, their F4 24-105mm G OSS, and their GM F1.8 135mm lens'. All top of the line equipment and some accessories as well.
