Felipe Prieto is a Philadelphia-based commercial photographer, filmmaker, and creative director working across advertising, lifestyle portraiture, and fine art landscape storytelling. Originally from Bogotá, Colombia, where he graduated from Jorge Tadeo Lozano University and began his filmmaking career, Felipe brings a cinematic, deliberate perspective to modern visual narratives.

His focus on detail, shape, and lighting has led to collaborations across the Americas, including his role as an official Tamron Americas Ambassador. Felipe's unique cultural lens and artistic philosophy were also featured by Chevrolet in the national series, “Nuestro Lente; Nuestra Tierra,” highlighting his creative connection to nature and untamed spaces.

Guided by a mission to help audiences better understand the world and their role within it, Felipe’s work balances commercial clarity with an intimate, human-centric approach. Whether developing a brand campaign or capturing fine art collections, he invites viewers to explore new perspectives, celebrate shared humanity, and look closer at the stories within each frame.

EARTH’S EXTREMES

From portraits to macro-style closeups, Felipe Prieto has long put his lineup of Tamron lenses through their paces. The Philly photographer has also been known to try his hand at nature travel photography, including on two recent trips to Iceland and the Falkland Islands, an archipelago nestled deep in the South Atlantic. “My goal was to capture the wilderness of both regions,” Felipe says.

Art has the power to heal and inspire. For two years, I had the profound honor of participating as an artist in the Twist Out Cancer, Brushes With Cancer Fall 2024 and 2025 programs. This incredible initiative thoughtfully matches artists with brave cancer survivors, previvors, or caregivers ("Inspirations") to create a unique piece of art that tells their story of hope and resilience. I had the privilege of meeting two incredible individuals whose journeys I translated into visual form. This deeply meaningful experience fulfilled my soul, and I am proud to share the custom artwork and the stories behind these projects below.
