Heidi: How did this project come about?
Diego: About the project. I’m a photographer involved in the editorial production, advertising, this kind of stuff… but my passion is mountains, climbing, mountaineer, etc. And from a few years I´m introducing this passion to my daily work and I´m getting involved in different expeditions around the world Himalayas, Antarctica, etc… as photographer and videographer.
For this project… I always wanted to go to the Dolomites just because Is one of the best places to enjoy the amazing nature that involves the Alps, so I took a plan and started to design my route. One I was happy with the route I was talking with the Editor in Chief and explaining it, he was so interested in it that he made so little adjustments and the project began.
What was the editing process for selecting the cover image?
I always make a selection, not many images, just the ones that inspired me and the ones that I feel fit with the editorial line of Traveler.
What can you tell us about the collaboration?
As a common collaborator in this mag (this is my 3rd cover) I always feel comfortable and happy to be part of this great family.
What are you working on now?
Right now, I´ve just arrived from Nepal, Where I´ve been working in a project for a Non profit organization called SOS Himalaya. Filming and taking photos in the Makalu Valley.
