Throughout his childhood, Santiago knew that his drive in life was to create art and nothing seemed to satisfy him more than the art of Photography & Videography. During high school he began to take photography courses during his 10th, 11th and 12th year leading him to fall in love with the art. He began shooting videos for his schools online blog, theatre and dance performances and that is when he found a love for live event Photography & Videography.

He began to shoot events as a fan and proceeded to post on his Instagram account he created named ‘ographybysanti’ and started from there. He has worked with artists such as Austin Millz, Katherine Li, Sofia Camara, Avril Lavigne, Virginia To Vegas, Matt Bennett & more.

He is now taking courses at Emily Carr University and is in Visual Arts Bachelors Degree program.
