ABOUT  HECTOR

I’m Héctor Tapia, an Emmy-winning cinematographer and portrait

photographer based between Philadelphia and New York City.

My work blends street energy, editorial elegance, and a cinematic approach shaped by years

behind the camera in documentary and commercial film. I create portraits with intention.
Not stiff. Not over-produced. Just real people, beautifully framed in the rhythm of the city.

​

Every session is a film in motion, we walk, we explore, we talk, and I capture the

subtle moments where confidence and authenticity naturally appear.

Whether you’re building your personal brand, celebrating a milestone, or simply wanting portraits that feel like you, my goal is the same: to deliver images that feel elevated, iconic, and timeless.

 

Let’s create something iconic.
