Santiago Mejia

Hey! I'm Santi!

I'm a freelance photojournalist based in San Francisco, California.

My photos have been published in the San Francisco Chronicle, Los Angeles Times, Houston Chronicle, Huffington Post and The Guardian.

I'm a New York Times journalism institute alumni and a former photo intern at the San Francisco Chronicle who now freelances with them and local media companies.

My beat is immigration and social justice.

Every time I head out with my camera, my goal is to capture a series of informative and visually striking images in hope to open up one's eyes and change perspective for the better.

I head into sensitive situations with compassion and respect and I make sure the proper story is told.

I'm a proud member of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ), National Press Photographers Association (NPPA), National Association of Photoshop Professionals (NAPP), Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE), Canon Professional Services (CPS) and the Sports Shooter community.

I hope to hear from you soon to capture outstanding visuals and memories for you.
