Diana later completed a photojournalism program at the internationally recognized photography school, Speos & Polka Institute, in Paris, France. It was there she developed her portfolio and created original photo-series. Diana enjoys traveling and discovering new places, whether a few blocks down her street or abroad, she tries to immerse herself and appreciate what is around us.

This photo project gave her the chance to meet the players of Cheer San Diego Extreme and to visually capture the aesthetics of the cheerleading sport. Through her lens, Diana aimed to take portraits that reflect the players' athleticism, resilience, and pride. For more information visit: afsandiego.org Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram
