02 About

I’m Mario Gómez, the photographer behind Blackpepper, based in San José, Costa Rica. I specialize in commercial, beauty, skincare, and product photography for brands, advertising agencies, and creative teams.
My approach combines careful lighting, attention to texture, and natural expression to create images that bring each brand’s identity into focus. From a product detail to a lifestyle portrait, every image starts with understanding the creative brief and how the photographs will be used.
I work closely with clients and production teams to translate ideas into photographs for campaigns, digital platforms, and brand communications.
