who am I
My name is Jordan Leyton Silva. I’m a documentary filmmaker, photographer, and a father to a beautiful family—my wife and our three boys. Together, we travel the world, telling stories in some of the most breathtaking places on Earth, as well as in some of the most challenging.
My work is rooted in real moments. I approach travel photography the same way I approach documentary filmmaking—each image is part of a larger story. I don’t just capture places; I capture movement, emotion, and the quiet details that reveal what life feels like in that moment.
From remote landscapes to complex human stories, I believe the most powerful visuals come from authenticity. Whether I’m filming or photographing, my goal is always the same: to tell honest stories that connect people, places, and cultures in a meaningful way.
