We create documentary-driven visual stories with commercial polish.
Helping organizations connect to real people with authenticity and intention.
DigitalJose Creative Services is a Des Moines, Iowa video production and photography studio led by Jose Calderon, a Regional Emmy Award-winning director of photography. We create brand films, commercial video, and photography for organizations in Iowa, across the U.S., and internationally.
Video Production
Documentary and brand films, commercial and campaign video, and corporate brand storytelling. We manage the full production: planning, filming, lighting, and post-production, including editing and color. The goal is a clear message and a stronger brand.
Photography
Campaign and brand photography, editorial and environmental portraits, and leadership headshots that feel human, confident, and intentional.
Designed for organizations and individuals who need imagery that reflects credibility, clarity, and real presence, without looking staged or generic.
Creative Direction and Content Strategy
Creative direction, production leadership, and content strategy. We work as an extension of your marketing team to shape the vision, guide execution, and keep every visual touchpoint consistent.
Experience
We bring more than 20 years of experience in visual storytelling, including over a decade leading photo and video production for a Fortune 200 organization. That work supported global marketing, internal communications, and executive-level initiatives.
We have led productions across the U.S. and internationally, and we have been trusted with high-visibility projects that require discretion, consistency, and sound creative judgment.
How We Work
Clients work with us in different ways, from single projects to ongoing partnerships, depending on their needs and scope.
For ongoing creative support, we also offer retainers. A retainer gives you consistent access to senior-level creative leadership without the overhead of a full-time hire.
