Hey, I’m Chalo—photographer, filmmaker, and storyteller focused on the culture of running. I travel to document the raw, authentic side of the sport: the people, the stories, and the moments that go beyond just races and finish lines. My work is about capturing the energy of a city through its runners, the streets they move on, and the culture that shapes them.

I’m always on the go, exploring new places and connecting with communities. Whether it’s a marathon, a track session, or a crew run at dawn, I’m there with my camera, documenting the movement. Beyond that, I love good music, deep conversations, and discovering a city through the eyes of locals.

I’m a responsible and respectful guest—I travel light, need little, and always appreciate good company. If you’re open to hosting, I’d love to share stories, perspectives, and maybe even a run if you’re up for it.
