Chava Oropesa Photography
Hi! I’m Chava, an Oakland-based Photographer and Creative Director whose love for photography, food, and even the packaging it comes in, has transformed into my life's passion.
Growing up in Mexico City filled my life with colorful culture which has deeply influenced both my design style and photography. Browse my portfolio at www.chavaoropesa.com and you’ll see that I am not a stranger to pops of color and dramatic lighting.

Winning photos
Batard style loaf of bread, flavored with potatoes, bacon, chives, sour cream, and cheddar cheese.
I decided to play with the shadows and shapes of the napkin against the backdrop to give the overhead image depth.
The Lucille Bluth breakfast. I took this photo as one last cheers to comedy icon Jessica Walter after her passing away. I loved every second she was on screen and enjoyed every perfectly timed line she delivered. She was the best part of Arrested Development.
The image was inspired by this scene:
Lucille: “Get me a vodka rocks.”
Michael: “Mom, it’s breakfast.”
Lucille: “And a piece of toast.”
