ABOUT NUMA
I am Numa Delgado, a cinematic photographer and visual storyteller whose creative journey has taken me from New York City to Cincinnati, Ohio. I specialize in concert, music, fashion, and editorial photography.
My journey in the creative world began in front of the camera as a model and actor, working across fashion, television, and international productions. These experiences gave me a unique understanding of performance, movement, emotion, composition, and visual storytelling—elements that continue to shape my work behind the lens.
Over time, my passion shifted behind the camera, where I discovered my true creative voice through photography. I further developed my craft through professional training at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York City, refining both my technical expertise and artistic vision.
My deep passion for rock music naturally led me toward concert photography. Drawn to the raw energy, emotion, chaos, and intensity of live performances, I began capturing concerts through an authentic and cinematic lens—focusing on unfiltered moments, powerful expressions, movement, and the unique connection between artists and their audiences.
Throughout my career, I have worked on creative projects and collaborations connected to New York City's influential rock and punk scene. My work has included projects featuring artists and iconic figures such as Rachel Bolan of Skid Row, The Rattlers, Mickey Leigh—brother of Joey Ramone—Steve Conte of the New York Dolls, Toxic Tito, LaBrett, Motel 6, and other influential artists connected to New York City's legendary rock and punk culture.
I also collaborated on creative coverage surrounding the Joey Ramone Birthday Bash, celebrating the legacy and culture of one of New York City's most iconic punk rock traditions.
From my passion for rock music and the desire to capture concerts through raw, powerful, and cinematic imagery, The Cult Vision was born—a creative vision dedicated to documenting the energy, attitude, culture, and unforgettable moments that exist within live music and alternative culture.
Beyond music photography, I have worked on fashion editorials and creative productions in New York City, Los Angeles, and Florida, collaborating with creative professionals and bringing a cinematic, editorial approach to every project.
Today, I continue my creative journey from Cincinnati, Ohio, bringing the energy, experience, and artistic influence of New York City into every project I create.
My work lives at the intersection of music, fashion, culture, and visual storytelling. Whether capturing the intensity of a live performance or creating an editorial fashion image, my goal is to create images that feel alive, authentic, raw, and timeless.
I believe the best images are not simply taken—they are felt.
RAW MOMENTS. LIVE MUSIC. FASHION. CULTURE. THE CULT VISION.
