Hi, my name is Leah (lay-ah/leia).

I’m a Filipina multidisciplinary artist with a strong foundation in visual storytelling and digital media. I began my career as a freelance editorial photographer, capturing moments from the streets of Metro Manila to small islands and communities across the Philippines.

I’ve always sought out the nuances and stories found in everyday life, creating work that spans editorial, documentary, portraiture, travel and lifestyle, all rooted in authenticity and emotional depth. Beyond commercial work, I also explore lens-based personal projects with themes on self-discovery, concepts of home, and the banality of life.

My practice continues to grow as I expand my skills in digital media production, graphic design, brand identity, and art direction. I thrive in collaborative, creative environments, and I’m committed to producing work that is meaningful and compelling.

If my work resonates with you, let’s connect. I’d love to hear your story.

Testimonials

  • "Leah de Leon Peregrin’s consummate deftness at bringing images to life on print and digitally calls to mind a disciplined and scholarly eye that took decades of practice and study to achieve. And she does all this with easygoing charm and lightheartedness that make her an immense pleasure to work with."

    Christopher Cruz, Senior Contributing Writer, Asian Traveler Magazine

  • "One of the best ways to judge Leah de Leon Peregrin’s value as an artist is to judge how she performs in an industry wherein you can survive without being one. The media—where she has worked several years—would often only rely on a photographer to give the facts and she can achieve that easily because of her technical knowledge. But Leah can give more and she does. Often her work gives that truth in a way that stirs the audience and she achieves this by never relinquishing her identity as an artist: someone who passionately puts humanity into her craft. It also helps that working with her is easy… breezy… beautiful. [Covergirl.]"
