About

I’m David Michael Padilla—a commercial photographer passionate about creating images that capture the beauty and complexity of everyday moments. My goal is to bring objects to life through the lens and tell stories that are both compelling and visually stunning.

With a background in commercial advertising and a deep appreciation for the natural beauty in everyday life, I approach each project with a keen eye for detail and a strong sense of composition. Whether I’m shooting a single e-commerce product, crafting a complex campaign, or capturing the emotion of a moment with a model, I strive to create images that are fun, thought-provoking, and technically proficient.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with a wide range of clients—from artists and designers to commercial brands. I’m dedicated to delivering high-quality work while keeping the process smooth, collaborative, and enjoyable. I take pride in going the extra mile to bring each client’s vision to life.

When I’m not behind the camera or diving into the latest tech innovations in the industry, you’ll find me spending time with my kids, out on the golf course, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.

If you're looking for a commercial photographer who brings a fresh perspective and a sharp eye to every project, I’d love to connect. Let’s work together to create images that beautifully capture the essence of your product in a way that’s both memorable and lasting.
