“From Day One, my love of in-the-moment shoots and edgy aesthetic led my art.”

Arturo Torres, a first-generation Mexican American photographer based on the west coast. He’s a photographer who works his magic for fashion, editorial, and commercial clients whose secret superpower is pulling uber authenticity out of his subjects. He’s worked with a highly notable roster of clients including Nike, Ralph Lauren, and Levi's—but his favorite gigs are the ones where he gets to help invent a brand’s aesthetic. From day one, his love of in-the-moment shoots and edgy aesthetic led his art—he’s self-taught and got his start shooting in nightclubs around San Francisco and Los Angeles. When he’s not behind the camera you can find Arturo under a car (tinkering that is), hunting down creative license plates, and collecting film cameras. And if you give him chips and guac on set, he’ll be your best friend.
